[Verse 1]
He [C]was the black sheep of the fam[F]ily
How did [C]mama's pride and [F]joy
Go [C]from such a precious [F]baby
To the [G]devil's poster boy
I'm gonna [C]slick my hair like [F]Elvis
Roll my [C]cuffs like Jerry [F]Lee
If [C]the backbeat's born in [F]hell
Then that's the [G]place I want [Gsus4]to be
Gonna [G]be a

[Verse 2]
[F]midnight rid[C]er
Gonna [F]burn my candle [C]down
[F]Followin that [C]drivin' beat
To the [Am]dark side of [F]town
[C][F][C]

[Verse 3]
[F]
From [C]the barrooms of Deep [F]El lum
To [C]the crashpads on [F]the bay
[C]He spiraled slow and [F]steady
Down a [G]lonely blue hiway

[Verse 4]
I'm gonna [C]chase my beer with [F]whiskey
Stick a [C]needle in my [F]skin
[C]Gonna celebrate the [F]mystery
Of the [G]hole I've fallen in

[Verse 5]
'Cause I'm [F]a m[C]idnite rider
[G]Gonna [F]burn my candle [C]down
[F]Followin' that [C]drivin' beat
To the [Am]dark side of [F]town
[C][G][C][F][C]

[Verse 6]
[F]
He [C]loved that funky mu[F]sic
He [C]knew the [F]backroad scenes
Every [C]barbeque and [F]blues band
Between [G]here and New Orleans

[Verse 7]
[C]He put down the [F]bottle
Oc[C]tober [F]'89[C]
Eased up on the [F]throttle
[G]Bought him a little time

[Verse 8]
But he was [F]a m[C]idnite rider
[G]He bur[F]ned that candle dow[C]n
Hangin' [F]out on easy [C]does it street
[G]On the dar[Am]k side of tow[F]n[G]
[F][C]

[Interlude 1]
[F][C][F][C][Am][C][F]

[Verse 9]
[C]Big Al settled [F]down
Along the [C]banks of [G]Onion [F]creek
With a [C]pickup and a [F]hound dog
And [G]a little lucky s[Gsus4]treak
[G]He

[Verse 10]
[C]nursed that fragile [F]frame
Through the [C]hurricanes and [F]drought
It was [C]a summer wind t[Dm]hat c[F]ame
And [G]blew the candle out

[Verse 11]
But he was [F]a m[C]idnite rider
He [F]burned that candle [C]down
[F]Followin that [C]drivin' beat

[Verse 12]
To the [Am]dark side of [F]town

[Verse 13]
[F]Oh you [C]midnite rider
I [F]know you're still [C]around
[F]Hangin' out on [C]easy street
On the [Am]dark side of [F]town[C][F][C][G][C][F]
[C][F][C][F][C][F][C]
[F][C][F][C][F]
End:

[Outro 1]
On the dark side of town
