[Intro]
A G D D A A G D D A
A G D A A G D A
[Verse 1]
A G
Sweetheart, your heart is loaded down
D A
With useless burdens and bones
G
I can tell by the tear stains on your letter
D A
That you wrote me from the twilight zone
G
You ask if I miss you, well, of course I miss you
D A
I miss you every night or two
[Chorus]
A G
When I hear the moanin' of the midnight train
D A
Reminds me so much of you
[Break]
A G D A A G D A
[Verse 2]
A G
Wanderin' all alone down the road to roam
D A
Wonderin' 'bout the seeds you've sown
G
A rock is a rock, a hard place is a hard place
D A
But a road is a road is a road
G
You trash it out and clean it up and almost get it right
D A
About the time time you're done and through
[Chorus]
A G
When I hear the moanin' of the midnight train
D A
Reminds me so much of you
[Break]
A G D A A G D A
[Verse 3]
A G
One day, it's not enough, one day, it's too much
D A
One day, it's just a little bit of each
G
One day, you're face to face and you don't even touch
D A
You walked away when it was well within your reach
G
With that wall all around you, it was me who let you in
D A
When you said nobody but nobody would do
[Chorus]
A G
When I hear the moanin' of the midnight train
D A
Reminds me so much of you
[Solo]
A G D A A G D A
A G D A A G D A
[Verse 4]
A G
Scratchin' out a livin', scratchin' the surface
D A
It's just the tip of the iceberg, kid
G
The last place you look is where you're gonna find it
D A
You don't even know what it is that's hid
G
But don't feel so sad, you ain't doin' so bad
D A
Hey, you got this far without a clue
[Chorus]
A G
When I hear the moanin' of the midnight train
D A
Reminds me so much of you
A G
When I hear the moanin' of the midnight train
D A
Reminds me so much of you
[Outro]
