Guitar solo with riff:
      E7#9          E7#9      2x


      E7#9               E7#9
I was standin' at the station,
      E7#9               E7#9
Ten to midnight in the rain
      E7#9               E7#9
I was mindin'   my own bus'ness,
      E7#9               E7#9
Waiting for that midnight train

   E7#9               E7#9
Nobody in sight,    starin' at my shoes

I took out my paper to find me some good news
E7#9                       E7#9
Mindin' my own bus'ness  When the ticket man

called my name      Yeah, yeah, babe


      E7#9                  E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9                  E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9                  E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9                  E7#9
         Comin' down the line


guitar riff:
| E7#9 G# A A# B | C# D C# D D# |
| E7#9 G# A A# B |  C# D   D# E7#9 |


      E7#9               E7#9
So I say, "If it ain't too much trouble,
      E7#9               E7#9
When's the local out of town?"
      E7#9               E7#9
His reply:        "Two a.m."
      E7#9               E7#9
If I'm leavin'  local-bound

      E7#9               E7#9
I can catch it in forty minutes,
      E7#9               E7#9
If I want to grab the express
      E7#9               E7#9
But the local trains are hard to come by,
      E7#9               E7#9
This time of night, more or less  Listen, said mow


      E7#9               E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9               E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9               E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9               E7#9
         Comin' down the line


Interlude:
    | E7#9  G  | A  C  | E7#9  G  | A |

So;o over verse  2x:

Verse with Guitar riff:

       E7#9  G#  A  A# | B C# D D#
So I stood for forty minutes,
        E7#9   G#   A   A# | B C# D C# D D#
It was raining and it was cold
       E7#9    G#    A      A#  |   B C# D D#
When the express rolled down the track,
          E7#9      G#     A    A# | B  C#  D  C#  D  D#
I did not care where it was gonna go. Yeah, yeah, He said...

      E7#9               E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9               E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9               E7#9
There ain't no midnight train
      E7#9               E7#9
Comin' down the line
