Midnight Train To Memphis by Kid Rock
Midnight Train To Memphis
Tune down 1/2 step, EbAbDbGbBbeb
Verse 1:
[D] I was hiding from the sun once again,
[D] I was running from the time my friend,
I've [A] lost another war.
So, I [G] poured one more,
and went home drunk [D] again.
[D] She was up when the key hit the lock,
[D] and the clock looked at me just like
the [A] devil in disguise.
I saw it [G] in her eyes-
she'd be gone before the [D]evenin'.
Refrain:
[G] So, I poured another strong one
and chopped a line from here to [D] Texas.
[G] Cause I've lost another good one -
she's on the midnight train to [D] Memphis.
Verse 2:
[D] With a brand new start,
[D] I swore I'd love from the heart,
I meant to [A] change my ways.
But I've seen [G] better days,
than the one's that's here this [D] mornin'.
[D] With a wife and kids at home
[D] with a job some where
on some [A] assembly line.
I wish [G] I had that life-
I bet you wish you had [D] mine.
Refrain:
[G] So, let's pour another tall one
and chop a line from here to [D] Texas.
[G] Cause I've lost another good one-
she's on the midnight train to [D] Memphis
[Spoken part - rap part - solo - omitted for space purposes]
[Last verse - guitar with moderate distortion]
Verse 3:
[D] With an old suitcase,
[D] I swear I'll leave this place
I'll get you [A] back in time
Can't drink you [G] off my mind.
So, I'll see you when I'm [D] sober.
Refrain:
[G] I been looking for some reasons,
but I ain't found one down in [D] Texas
I been [G] changing with the seasons,
Walkin a new line back to [C] [A#] [G] Memphis.

I was hiding from the sun once again
I was running from time my friend
I've lost another war
So I poured one more, and went home drunk again
She was up when the key hit the lock
And the clock looked at me just like the devil in disguise
I saw it in her eyes
She'd be gone before the evening
So I poured another strong one
And chopped a line from here to Texas
'Cause I've lost another good one
She's on the midnight train to Memphis
With a brand new start
I swore I'd love from the heart
I meant to change my ways
But I've seen better days
Than the one that's here this morning, mmhm
With a wife and kids at home
With a job somewhere on some assembly line
I wish I had that life
I bet you wish you had mine
So I poured another tall one
And chopped a line from here to Texas
'Cause I've lost another good one
She's on the midnight train to Memphis
Dude, what station is this, K snooze
Kid Rock, I thought he was the American bad ass
He's putting me to sleep
Nudge me if he gets over five decibels
I knew his first album was the good one
But that's the way I am, and this is how I jam
All across the land from Alabam' to bandstand
Doped up rebel with an attitude, shit
So fuck a bitch, fuck a bitch, fuck a bitch
I won't switch, won't quit no vices
Flip the script cause I'm a slice the righteous
Haven't you heard I don't refrain
Free as a bird, and so I won't change
Livin' it up, givin' it up, fuckin' shit up, what
I'm a run the track from the D to Nantucket
So fuck it, if you don't dig that you can suck it
Yeah, and it don't, and it don't
With an old suitcase, I swear I'll leave this place
I'll get you back in time, can't drink you off my mind
So I'll see you when I'm sober
I been looking for some reasons
But I ain't found one down in Texas
I been changing with the seasons
Walked in a new line back to Memphis
