Riding On That Midnight Train

Ricky Skaggs

Capo 4

G C G

No matter what I say or do, you're never satisfied

G D G

I tried and tried so many times, I'm leavin' you now, good-bye

<CHORUS>

G G7 C C7 G

I'm riding on that midnight train, My head's a-hanging low

G D G

These awful blues will follow me, Wherever I may go

G C G

Why on earth was I ever born, I'll never understand

G D G

To fall in love with a woman like you, in love with another man

<CHORUS>

G C G

You broke a heart that trusted you, why wasn’t it made of stone

G D G

I’m left in a world black as night, yet I must travel on

<CHORUS>
