Midnight Special

A                            D
      Yonder come Miss Rosie,
                            A
How in the world do you know
Well I knows about her by her apron
Bm  E

                         A
& the dress that she wore
                         D
Umbrella on her shoulder
                            A
A piece of paper in her hand
                            Bm
Well she’s going to see the governor
E
Turn loose my man

[Chorus]
A                D
Let the midnight special
                   A
Shine its light on me
                    Bm
Oh let the midnight special
E                             A
Shine its everloving light on me

[Verse 2]
                         D
When you get up in the morning
                    A
When that big bell rings
                            Bm  E
You go marching to the table
                          A
You see the same damn thing
                            D
Knife & fork are on the table

Ain't nothin' in my pan
                   Bm
& you say a word about it
E                     A
have trouble with the man

A                D
Let the midnight special
                   A
Shine its light on me
                    Bm
Oh let the midnight special

[Verse 3]
A                    D
Well, jumpin' little Judy
                      A
She was a mighty fine gal
                 Bm
And Judy brought jumpin'
E                  A
To the whole round world
                            D
Well, she brought it in the morning
                   A
Just awhile before day
                         Bm
Well, she brought me the news
E                A
That my wife was dead
                   D
That started me to grievin'
                    A
I gotta hollerin' & cryin'
                Bm
Then I begun to worry
 E                  A
'Bout my great very time

[Chorus]
A                D
Let the midnight special
                   A
Shine its light on me
                    Bm
Oh let the midnight special
E                             A
Shine its everloving light on me

A                D
Let the midnight special
                   A
Shine its light on me
                    Bm
Oh let the midnight special
E                             A
Shine its everloving light on me

[Verse 4]
                           D
So if you ever go to Houston
                           A
Boys you'd better walk right
                          Bm  E
And you better not stagger
                        A
And you better not fight
                              D
Sherif Broxton will arrest you
                           A
Cadet Boone will take you down
                      Bm
& you bet your bottom dollar
E                    A
you're penitentiary bound

[Chorus] (x2)
A                D
Let the midnight special
                   A
Shine its light on me
                    Bm
Oh let the midnight special
E                             A
Shine its everloving light on me
