[A#] [E]
[A] [D] [E]
[A]
Yonicama [D] Miss Rosie, [F#m] how in the [Am] world do you [E]
[A] know?
Well I'm loath [B] about her [E] apron and the dress [A] she wore
Amarillo on [G] her shoulder, [F#] piece of paper in her hand
[A] Well I'm going [B] to ask the governor, he's [E] trying to lose her [A] my man
Let the [Bm] midnight special [D]
shine a [A] light on me
[Em] Let the midnight special shine a [A] little light on me
[D] When you get up in the morning, [F#m] [F#] when that deep [Am] bill rings
[E] To the table, it be the same [A] damn thing
Knife and fork are [D] on the table, there's nothing in [Am] my pan
Never said a thing [G] [E] about it, I was ever [A] with the man
Let the midnight [D]
special [G] shine a light [A] on me
[E] Let the midnight special shine a little light [Am] on me
Well I went to [G] the nation and the [A] territory
Well I thought [F#] about the girl I [E] loved, lived in [Em] Mexico
Let the midnight [G] special shine a light [A] on me
Let the midnight [E] special shine a little [A] loving light on me
If you ever [Bm] go to Houston, boy you better water right
And you better [B] not squabble, and you [E] better [A] not fight
Bass [Bm] and rock will arrest you, [E] pain and boom will take [A] you down
You're gonna bet [F#] you bought a dollar [E] and a
[A] tangerine round
Let the [G] midnight [D] special shine a light [A] on me
[Em] Let the midnight special shine a little loving [A] light on me
Well jumpin' [D] little Judy, [F#m] she was a mighty [A] fine girl
Judy [B] brought jumpin' to this whole [A] round world
Well she [E] brought it in the [F#m] mornin', just a while [A] before day
She brought [F#] me to tears, [E] that my wife [A] was dead
That started [D] me to creepin', and hollin' [A] and cryin'
And [E] I been getting [F#] worried, [B]
about a minute long [A] time
Let the [G] midnight special shine a [A] light on me
Let the midnight [E]
special shine a little [A] loving light on me
[C#m] [N]
