[Dm] Midnight in Montgomery, [C] Silver Eagle, lonely boy,
[Bb] 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 dive down,
[Dm] And a drunk man in a cowboy hat [C] took me by surprise.
[Bb] Wearing shiny boots, a nudey suit, [Dm] and horn-pointed eyes,
He said, friend, it's good to see you, [C] it's nice to know you care.
And [Bb] when picked up, he was gone, [A] was he ever really there?
Cause [G] it's midnight in [Dm] Montgomery,
[C] Just hear that whip of [Dm] wind,
See 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]
[Dm] [C] Well [D] I climbed [Dm] back on that eagle,
[C] Took one last look around,
[F] Red tail lights, [Bb] shadow [Dm] moves slow across the ground.
And off somewhere [C] a midnight [Dm] train [C] slowly passes by,
I [Bb] could hear that whistle blow,
I'm [Em] so [A] lonesome I could cry.
Cause [C] it's midnight [G] in [Dm] Montgomery,
[C] Just hear that whip of [Dm] wind,
See the [G] stars light up the [Dm] purple sky,
[A] Feel that lonesome chill,
[G] When the wind is right you'll hear his song, smell [Dm] whiskey in the air.
[C] [Bb] Midnight in Montgomery, [A] he's always [Dm] singing there.
[C] He's always [Dm] singing there.
[C]
Well Hank's always singing there.
