Midnight Train

Key of G

Open in Bluegrass Book: transpose, play along

Verse

No matter what I say or do you’re never satisfied
I’ve tried and tried so many times I’m leavin you now good bye

Chorus

I’m ridin on that midnight train my head’s a hangin low
These awful blues will follow me where ever I may go

Verse

Oh why on earth was I ever born I’ll never understand
To fall in love with a woman like you in love with another man

Verse

You broke a heart that trusted you why wasn’t it made of stone
I’m left in a world black as night, yet I must journey on
