         B              A        Em      Em
Did you hear about the midnight rambler?
B          A        Em  Em
Everybody got to go.
         B              A        Em     Em
Did you hear about the midnight rambler?
    B                  A          Em   Em
The one that shut the kitchen door?

    A                Em      B      B
He don't give you a hoot of warning,
  A               Em        B      B
Wrapped up in a black cat cloak,
    B               A            Em      Em
He don't go in the light of the morning,
B        A                Em            B
   He split the time the cock'rel crows.

Talkin' about the midnight gambler,

Did you see him jump the garden wall?

 A                Em      B      B
Sighin' down the wind so sadly,
 A                Em             B      B
Listen and you'll hear him moan!
       A                Em        B      B
Well, talkin' about the midnight gambler,
A          Em      B  B

Well, talkin’ ’bout the midnight... sh...
    B                    A          Em    Em
The one that closed the bedroom door.

                A               Em  B     B
I'm called the hit-and-run raper in anger,
      A              Em           B  B
The knife-sharpened tippie-toe...
              A               Em       B
Or just the shoot 'em dead, brainbell jangler,
B              A              E           B
 You know, the one you never seen before.

So if you ever meet the midnight rambler,
 A                Em     B     B
Coming down your marble hall,
            A              Em         B
Well, he's pouncing like proud black panther,
B              A    Em           B   B
Well, you can say I, I told you so!
                 A              Em       B       B
Well, don't you listen for the midnight rambler,
        A     Em       B    B
Play it easy,  as you go,
            A                Em            B
I'm gonna smash down all your plate glass windows,
     B          A
Put a fist, put a fist through
 Em                B     B
Your steel-plated door!

I'll go easy with your cold fanged anger,
                A          Em          B
I'll stick my knife right down your throat,
              B
Baby, and it hurts!
