Waiting On A Dark Eyed Gal

G  C  G


[Verse 1]
N.C.               G         C               G        C G
Well, the midnight train can come and go without him
                                  D    C Bm Am
Oh, he don't need no taxi back to town
              G                      C
He says he'll stay right here in the depot light
          B7                    Em     C
He was supposed to meet someone dear tonight
          G
He's just sitting there thinking
D                      G
Waitin' on a dark-eyed gal


[Verse 2]
N.C.         G                 C          G        C G
No, he don't mind the rain, he never even noticed
                                                  D   C Bm
And he don't mind the cold, it wouldn't matter anyhow
     Am        G                            C
As a matter of fact, he could stay till the break of day
         B7                Em     C
He don't see as he's in anybody's way
     G
Just sittin' here thinking
D                      G
Waitin' on a dark eyed gal


[Bridge]
               C
She said she'd meet him at the station
           G
He won't believe she'd keep him waiting
     Em         A
Very long, very long


[Verse 3]
N.C.      G        C              G        C G
She never told him she was coming with him
                                        D    C           Bm
Or if she only wanted to say a last farewell   Fare thee well
Am        G              C
Never was one to let him know her mind
           B7                       Em        C
So he just keeps hanging on now and doing his time
          G
He's just sitting there thinking
D                      G   C G
Waitin' on a dark-eyed gal

Yeah, the midnight train has come and gone without him
                                  D    C Bm Am
Oh, he don't need no taxi back to town
                  G                      C
He says I'll just stay right here in the depot light
