[Chorus]
    G                              C                   G
I'm riding on that midnight train my head's a-hanging low
                                     D7         G
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go


[Verse 1]
G                                 C          G
No matter what I say or do you're never satisfied
                                    D7                   G
I tried and tried so many times I'm leaving you now good-bye


[Chorus]
                                  C                   G
I'm riding on that midnight train my head's a-hanging low
                                     D7         G
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go


[Chorus]
                                  C                   G
I'm riding on that midnight train my head's a-hanging low
                                     D7         G
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go


[Verse 2]
                                  C          G
Why on earth was I ever born I'll never understand
                                         D7                G
To fall in love with a woman like you in love with another man


[Chorus]
                                  C                   G
I'm riding on that midnight train my head's a-hanging low
                                     D7         G
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go


[Verse 3]
                                       C                 G
You broke a heart that trusted you why wasn't it made of stone
                                       D7            G
I'm left in a world black as night yet I must travel on


[Chorus]
                                  C                   G
I'm riding on that midnight train my head's a-hanging low
                                     D7         G
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go


[Chorus]
                                  C                   G
I'm riding on that midnight train my head's a-hanging low
                                     D7         G
These awful blues will follow me wherever I may go
