Midnight Rider


I've got to run     to keep from hiding
 5   -5  -5 -6* -5  -5  6    6    6  -5

And I'm bound     to keep on riding
 5  -5  -6* 6 -5  -5  6   6   6 -5

I've got one more    silver dollar
  5  -5  -6* -6* 6    6  6   6 -5

But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
 5  -5  -6  -6 -6 -5   5   -5   5   -5

Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
7  -6 -6  -5   -5   5   -3   -5   5  3 -2* -5


I don't own the clothes I'm wearing
5   -5  -6*  6   6     6     6   6  -5

And the road   goes on forever
 5   -5 -6* 6   6   6  -5 6 -5

I've got one more    silver dollar
  5  -5  -6* -6* 6    6  6   6 -5

But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
 5  -5  -6  7 -6  -6  -5   -6   5  -5

Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
7  -6 -6  -5   -5   5   -3   -5   5  3 -2* -5


I've gone by    the point of caring
  5   -5 -6* -5  -5   6   6   6 -5

Some old bed    I'll soon be sharing
  5  -5  -6* 6   6     6   6   6 -5

I've got one more    silver dollar
  5  -5  -6* -6* -5   6  6   6 -5

But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
 5  -5  -6  -6 -6  -5   5  -5   5   -5

Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
7  -6 -6  -5   -5   5   -3   -5   5  3 -2* -5


No I'm not gonna let 'em catch me, no
 5  -5  -6  7 -6  -6   -5  -6  -6 -5 -4* -3*

Not gonna let 'em catch the midnight rider
7  -6 -6  -5   -5   5   -3   -5   5  3 -2* -5
