Midnight Flyer(Chords)

	        Am 
In the dark I hear the whistle, the rumble of the cars 
    F                        G 
The lonesome midnight flyer, past the late night bars 
Am                         Em 
Pulling sixty box-cars and heading through our town 
F                           G 
Tearing up the night with a long lonesome sound 


C                             Am 
It's been a long year since I thought about the train 
    F                         G 
The greyhound and the highway took me where I've been 
Am                                  Em 
Late at night I hear the sound, the humming of the rails 
    F                              G 
The lonesome midnight flyer taking high wind in her sails 



Am 
Here comes the midnight flyer 
Em 
Set your watches by her 
F                            G 
Wheels rolling, coming in on time 
Am                       Em 
No one pays her no mind, no one hears her crying 
      F                             G 
'Cept some old man bumming down the line 



Am 
Here comes the midnight flyer, tell me how do you know? 
         F                      G 
'Cause I heard her long whistle moan so soft and low 
Am                                  Em 
Wheels clicking on the rails in the stillness of the night 
    F                         G 
The engineer's pulling cord until he gets it right 


C                                         Am 
She's rolling through the back yards, the sleepers in the night 
       F                  G 
On the outskirts of town, headlight burning bright 
          Am                          Em 
And she's pulling sixty box-cars and another railroad bum 
    F                          G 
Who heard her whistle blow and caught her on the run 



Am 
Here comes the midnight flyer 
Em 
Set your watches by her 
F                            G 
Wheels rolling, coming in on time 
Am                       Em 
No one pays her no mind, no one hears her crying 
      F                             G 
'Cept some old man bumming down the line
