[Intro]
Dm  Dm  C  C  Dm  Dm  C  C

[Verse]
Dm
Midnight in Montgomery
       C
Silver Eagle, Lonely Road
  Bbsus2
I was on my way to Mobile
      Dm
For a big New Year's Eve show
Dm
Stopped for just a minute
         C
To see a friend outside of town
   Bbsus2
My collar up, I found his name
A
Felt the wind die down
      Dm
And a drunk man in a cowboy hat
C
took me by surprise
        Bbsus2
wearin' shiny boots, a nudie suit
    Dm
and haunted, haunted eyes
Dm
he said, friend its good to see you
    C
its nice to know you care
        Bbsus2
and the wind picked up and he was gone or was he
A
ever really there


[Chorus]
            C                Dm
'Cause it's midnight in Montgomery
     C                   Dm
Just hear that whip-poor-will
        C                  Dm
See the stars light up the purple sky
A
Feel that lonesome chill
                C
'Cause when the wind is right you'll hear his song,
      Dm
Smell whiskey in the air
C               Bbsus2
Midnight in Montgomery
     A              Dm
He's always singin' there


[Verse]
Dm
I climbed back on that eagle
     C
took one last look around
Bbsus2                        Dm
red tail lights, shadow moves slow across the ground
Dm
off somewhere a midnight train
C
slowly passes by
      Bbsus2
I can hear that whistle blowin'
       A
I'm so lonesome I could cry


[Chorus]
            C                Dm
'Cause it's midnight in Montgomery
     C                   Dm
Just hear that whip-poor-will
        C                  Dm
See the stars light up the purple sky
A
Feel that lonesome chill
                C
'Cause when the wind is right you'll hear his song,
      Dm
Smell whiskey in the air
C               Bbsus2
Midnight in Montgomery
     A              Dm
He's always singin' there
     A              Dm   C
He's always singin' there
N.C.                            Dm
Well Hank's always singin' there
