INTRO: G D G

G C G

Love came knockin' one day at my window

D G

I turned my head and looked the other way

C G

A whisper in my head told me I should know

D G

Love is an imaginary day

I fell into her arms down at the station

She said that whistle's moan I should ignore

My soul tells me to travel 'cross the nation

But I can't drive that midnight train no more

CHORUS:

C C/G G

Oh I can't drive that midnight train no more

C C/G G D

Her hypnotic power has closed that lonely door

C G Em C

I was followin' those crazy tracks but I'm not sure what for

G D G

And I can't drive that midnight train no more

SOLO

She holds me close when fear drifts in the window

It tells me to let go but hold on strong

Bein' free was always my desire

But I learned freedom is here in this home

Today a boy came tuggin' on my pant leg

He said dad come on let's go outside and play

As I was wrestlin' him the wind was whisperin'

The road is an imaginary way

CHORUS

G D G

I can't drive that midnight train no more

G D G D G

I can't drive that midnight train no more
