Everywhere [F#] I,
[C#] where I look this morning
[F#m]
[N]
[F#m] Looks like [C#] rain, oh boy, yeah it looks like [F#]
rain
[C#] Well, you wake [B] up in the morning, hear the [F#] ding dong ring
Go marching [C#] to the table, see the [F#] same old thing
It's [B] on that table, knife a fork [F#] and a pan
Say anything [C#]
about it, have trouble [F#] with a man
Let the midnight [B]
special shine a light [F#] on me
Let the midnight [C#]
special [D] shine a loving [F#] light on me
Yonder comes Miss [B] Rosie, how in the hell [F#] do you know
I can tell her [C#] by her aprons [G#m] and the dress [F#] she wore
Umbrella [B] on her shoulder, piece of paper in [F#] her hand
She's gonna [C#] tell the governor, turn a loose [F#] my man
Let the [B] midnight special shine a light [F#] on me
Oh yeah, let the midnight [C#]
special shine [D] a loving [F#] light on me
If you [B] ever go to Houston, boy you [F#] better walk right
Well, you better [C#] not stagger, and you better [F#] not fight
Sheriff Benson [B] will arrest you, and the judge [F#] will send you down
You can bet your [C#] bottom dollar, you're sugar [F#] and bound
Let the [B] midnight special shine a light [F#m] on me
Let the midnight [C#]
special [D] shine a loving [F#] light on me
Well, my mother [B] wrote a letter, and my sister sent [F#] a card
Saying if you wanna [C#] see us, boy, gotta ride [F#] those rods
Well, I loved [B] her in the sunshine, and I loved [F#] her in the rain
And all that [C#] ever brought me was a ball [F#] and chain
Let the [B] midnight special shine a light [F#m] on me
Let the [C#] midnight special [D] shine a loving [F#m] light on me
Let the midnight [B]
special shine a light [F#] on [F#m] me
Oh yeah, let the [C#] midnight special shine a loving [B] light on me
