INTRO: G D G
GCG
Love came knockin' one day at my window
DG
I turned my head and looked the other way
CG
A whisper in my head told me I should know
DG
Love is an imaginary day
I fell into her arms down at the station
She said that whistle's moan I should ignore
My soul tells me to travel 'cross the nation
But I can't drive that midnight train no more
CHORUS:
CC/GG
Oh I can't drive that midnight train no more
CC/GGD
Her hypnotic power has closed that lonely door
CGEmC
I was followin' those crazy tracks but I'm not sure what for
GDG
And I can't drive that midnight train no more
SOLO
She holds me close when fear drifts in the window
It tells me to let go but hold on strong
Bein' free was always my desire
But I learned freedom is here in this home
Today a boy came tuggin' on my pant leg
He said dad come on let's go outside and play
As I was wrestlin' him the wind was whisperin'
The road is an imaginary way
CHORUS
GDG
I can't drive that midnight train no more
GDGG
I can't drive that midnight train no more
