Mark Erelli - Midnight train

I climbed ^Gout my bedroom window ^EmShimmied down the tree Under ^Ccover of the darkness I ^Dcrept on down the street She is ^Gwaiting for my signal Hope her ^Emdaddy doesn't hear When she ^Cscrambles down the trellis And we just ^Dup and disappear

I'll be ^B7waiting 'neath a streetlight all a^Clone Like a dog waits for a ^Gbone Honey, please don't let me ^Ddown I'm ^Bmonly trying to make you under^Cstand Come on baby, take my ^Amhand Only love and love a^Dlone's gonna save us now

Oh ^GAngie, can't you hear that whistle ^Cblow Pack your bags it's time to ^Ggo Don't you think it's time we ^Dmade our getaway We'll ^Gride the rails 'til morning comes ^Caround Wake up in some other ^Gtown Where no^Dbody knows our ^Emnames Run a^Cway with me and ^Dride the midnight ^Gtrain ^{C D}

We dis^Gcovered long ago This town ain't ^Embig enough for two Who re^Cfuse to dream in black and white Like ^Dall the others do I want to ^Gsee those colours shine Like in the ^Emstories I've been told Want to ^Cfollow that old rainbow 'Til we ^Dfind that pot of gold

Oh ^B7Angie, don't you listen when they ^C7tell you I'm insane They're only ^Gtrying to keep your heart up on the ^Dfence 'Cause the ^Bmtruth is it's the other way a^Cround And that's the trouble with this ^Amtown I'm the only one who's ^Dtalking any sense

Oh ^GAngie, can't you hear the engines ^Cwhine She's rumbling down the ^Gline Don't you think it's time we ^Dmade our getaway We'll ^Gride the rails 'til morning comes ^Caround Wake up in some other ^Gtown Where no^Dbody knows our ^Emnames Run a^Cway with me and ^Dride the midnight ^Ftrain ^G

Oh ^GAngie, can't you hear the lonesome ^Csound Nothing else can stop us ^Gnow Don't you think it's time we ^Dmade our getaway We'll ^Gride the rails 'til morning comes ^Caround Wake up in some other ^Gtown Where no^Dbody knows our ^Emnames Run a^Cway with me and ^Dride Run a^Emway with me to^Bmnight Run a^Cway with me and ^Dride the midnight ^Gtrain
