Midnight in Montgomery, [C] Silver Eagle, lonely boy,
[Bb] Was on my [F] way to Mobile [Dm] for a big New Year's Eve show.
Stop for just a minute, [C] see a friend outside of town,
[Bb] Put my collar up, I found his [A] name.
Felt the wind die [Dm] down, and a drunk man in a cowboy [C] hat,
Took me by surprise, [Bb] wearing shiny boots, a nudey suit,
And [Dm] 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, [A] but was he ever really there?
[C] Cause it's midnight [Dm] in Montgomery, [C] just hear that [Dm] whip of wind,
[C] See the [G] stars light [Dm] up the purple sky, [A] feel that lonesome chill.
[C] When the wind is right, you'll hear his [Dm] song, smell whiskey in the air.
[C] Midnight in [Bb] Montgomery, [A] he's always [D] singing [Dm] there.
[C] [Dm]
[C] [D] Well I [Dm] climbed back on that eagle, [C] one last look around,
[F] Red tail lights, [Bb] shadow [D] moves slow [Dm] across the ground.
And off somewhere [C] a midnight [Dm] train [C] slowly passing by,
[Bb] I could hear that whistle blow, [G] I'm so [A] lonesome I could cry.
Cause [C] it's midnight [G] in [Dm] Montgomery, [C] just hear that whip of [Dm] wind,
See [C] the [G] stars light up [Dm] the purple sky,
[A] feel that lonesome chill.
[G] When the wind is 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 there.
[C] Hank's always singing there.
