[Dm] Midnight in Montgomery, [C] Silver Eagle, lonely road,
[Bb] I was on [F] my way to Mobile [Dm] for a big New Year's Eve show.
Stopped for just a minute to [C] see a friend outside of town.
With [Bb] my collar up, I found his name.
[A] Felt the wind die down, [Dm] and a drunk man in a cowboy hat
[C] Took me by surprise.
[Bb] Wearing shiny boots, [Bb] a nudey suit, [Dm] and haunted eyes.
He said, friend, it's good to see you.
[C] It's nice to know you care.
[Bb] Then the wind picked up, and he was gone.
But [A] was he ever really there?
Cause [G] it's midnight in [Dm] Montgomery,
[C] Just hear that whiff of [Dm] wind.
See [C] the [G] stars light up [Dm] the purple sky.
[A] Feel that lonesome chill.
[G] When the wind did right, you'll hear his song, [Dm] smell whiskey in the air.
[C] Midnight in [Bb] Montgomery, [A] he's always [D] singing [Dm] there.
[C]
[Dm] [C] Well, [D] I climbed [Dm] back on that eagle, [C] just one last look around.
[Bb] Red tail lights, shadow [Dm] moves slow across the ground.
And off somewhere, a midnight train [C] slowly passed by.
[Bb] I could hear that whistle blow.
[Em] I'm so [A] lonesome I could cry.
Cause [C] it's midnight [G] in [Dm] Montgomery,
[C] Just hear that whiff of [Dm] wind.
See [G] the stars light up [Dm] the purple sky.
[A] Feel that lonesome chill.
[G] When the wind did right, you'll hear his song, [Dm] smell whiskey in the air.
[C] Midnight in [Bb] Montgomery, [A] he's always [Dm] singing there.
[C] He's always [Dm] singing, oh, [C]
Hank's always singing there.
