My Midnight Special by Luluc






                               My Midnight Special 








Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 3rd fret

The initial "down strum" here is just hitting the lowest note of the chord.
 
Also, pay attention to the small, muted walk that occurs when switching between the C & G.
This is just open 6th string E.
 
Lastly, and most importantly, the C major chord here uses a G root aka 3rd fret of the 6th string
like in the G chord will still be held down (by your third finger.) This differs from the sixth string
being muted in a traditional C major chord.

[Verses]
                C
Oh my man he is so fine
                     G
He shines a light on me
                 D7
And I bask in it all day
                        G
From my trouble sets me free
                        C
He takes the pain in my shoulders
                     G
Lets it loose in his hands
                          D7
He takes the sorrow in my dark eyes
                      G
Lets them brighten up again
                         C
Oh let me love him for a lifetime
                    G
And somewhere far beyond
                        D7
Let me take him with me everywhere
                  G
Til I am dead and gone
                            C
You know he loves me on the inside
                        G
Like a singer knows her song
                   D7
He loves me like a river
                G
That flows ever on
                          C
Oh let me love him like a river
           G
Flows ever on
