Creedence Clearwater Revival - The Midnight Special: chords

D                        G
Well, you wake up in the mornin,
                        D
You hear the work bell ring,
                           A
And they march you to the table
                      D
To see the same old thing.
                        G
Ain't no food upon the table,
                       D
And no pork up in the pan.
                        A
But you better not complain,
                                  D
Boy, you get in trouble with the man.

Chorus:
                   G                       D
Let the midnight special shine a light on me,
                   A                       D
Let the midnight special shine a light on me,
                   G                       D
Let the midnight special shine a light on me,
                   A
Let the midnight special shine a everlovin
          D
Light on me.

Yonder come miss Rosie
How in the world did you know?
By the way she wears her apron
And the clothes she wore
Umbrella on her shoulder
Piece of paper in her hand
She come to see the gov'nor
She wants to free her man, lord

Chorus

If you're ever in Houston
Well, you better do the right
You better not gamble
There and you better not fight, at all
Or the sheriff will grab ya
And the boys will bring you down
The next thing you know, boy
Oh! You're prison bound

Chorus:
Well let the Midnight Special
Shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
Shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
Shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
Shine a ever lovin' light on me

Let the Midnight Special
Shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
Shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
Shine a light on me
Let the Midnight Special
Shine a ever lovin' light
On me
