Vers 1:
M[Dm]idnight in Montgomery, silver ea[C9]gle, lonely road
I was [A#5]on my way to Mobile for a b[Dm]ig New Years Eve show
[Dm]I stopped for just a minute to see a fr[C9]iend outside of town
Put my co[A#5]llar up, found his name, and f[A]elt the wind die down
Vers 2:
Then a drunk man in a cowboy hat took me by surprise
Wearing shiny boots, a Nudi suit and haunting haunted eyes
He said "Friend it's good to see you, it's nice to know you care"
Then the wind picked up and he was gone
Was he ever really there
Chorus:
'Cause it's mid[C9]night in Mont[Dm]gomery
Just h[C9]ear that whipp[Dm]oorwill
See the s[C9]tars light up the pu[Dm]rple sky
F[A]eel that lonesome chill
When the w[C9]ind it's right, you'll hear his songs
Smell whi[Dm]skey in the air
Mi[C9]dnight in Montgo[A#5]mery
He's a[A]lways singing th[Dm]ere
Vers 3:
I climbed back on my eagle, took one last look around
Through red tail lights a shadow moved slow across the ground
Off somewhere a midnight train is slowly passing by
I could hear that whistle moaning
I'm so lonesome I could cry
Chorus:
'Cause it's midnight in Montgomery
Just hear that whippoorwill
See the stars light up the purple sky
Feel that lonesome chill
When the wind is right, you'll hear his songs
Smell whiskey in the air
Midnight in Montgomery
He's always singing there
He's always singing there
Hank's always singing there
