G                  C              D
No I don't need no taxi back to town
                   G                        C
I think I'll just stay right here in this depot light
   B                                 Em
Was supposed to meet someone here tonight
        G
Now I'm sittin here thinking
 D                     G
Waiting on a dark-eyed gal

[Verse 2]


N.C.       G                   C              G    C G
No, I don't mind the rain; I never even noticed
G                                C                  D
And I don't feel the cold, it wouldn't matter anyhow
                G                                   C
As a matter of fact I could stay till the break of day
    B                              Em
I don't see as I'm in anybody's way;
           G
I'm just sittin here thinking
 D                      G
Waiting on a dark eyed gal

[Bridge]

             C
She said she'd meet me at the station
             G                                 Em         D
I Don't believe she'll keep me waiting very long,  very long
N.C            G             C
She never was one to let me know her mind
          B                   Em
So I'll stay right here, just doing my time
        G               
Just sitting here thinking
 D                       G
Waiting on a dark eyed gal

[Outro]


                     G    C                  G             C G
Yeah, the midnight train has come and gone without me now
    G             C             D
I don't need no taxi back to town
           G                       C
Matter of fact I could stay until the break of day,
 B                            Em
I don't see I'm in anybody's way,
      G
Now I'm sittin' here thinking
   D                     G
Waiting on a dark eyed gal;
                              G
Yeah I'm just sitting here drinkin
   D                    G
Waiting on a dark-eyed gal
