Midnight Special Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I get up early i[C]n the morning,
hear the ding dong [G]ring
Go walk into my [A]table,
[C]see the same [G]damn thing
Knife and fork are on the [C]table,
there's nothing in [G]my can
But if I [A]think about it,
[C]I'm in trouble with the [G]man
Oh, let the midnight spe[C]cial
shine a star on [G]me
Let the midnight spe[A]cial
[C]shine a star of love and light on [G]me
If you ever go to [C]Houston,
you better walk [G]right
You better not [A]stagger,
[C]oh, you better not fight
[G]I the sheriff will arres[C]t you
And he'll carry you [G]down
And early in the [A]morning
[C]You're penitentiary [G]bound
Oh, let the midnight spe[C]cial
Shine a star on [G]me
Cause let the midnight spe[A]cial
[C]Shine a devil on a light [G]on me
I can tell her, Sis [C]Rosie
You ask me how [G]I know
I can tell her by [A]the apron
An[C]d the dress s[G]he wore,
umbrella on [C]her shoulder
Piece of paper [G]in her hand,
she's gonna ask [A]the judge, say
[C]Please release my [G]man
Let the Midnight Spe[C]cial
shine your light on [G]me
Let the Midnight [A]Special
[C]shine the devil of the night on me
[G]Let the Midnight Specia[C]l
shine the light on [G]me
Let the midnight spe[A]cial
[C]shine the devil of the night [G]on me
I get up early in the morn[C]ing,
hear the ding dong [G]ring
I go walking to my [A]table,
[C]I see the same damn t[G]hing
Knife and fork are on the [C]table,
there's nothing in my can
[G]But if I complain abo[A]ut it,
[C]I'm in trouble with the [G]man
Oh, let the midnight spe[C]cial
shine its light [G]on me
Let the midnight spe[A]cial
[C]shine its devil -lovin' light [G]on me
