F          C
Ooh Midnight Flyer
F                                C
Engineer won't you let your whistle moan
F          C  Am
Ooh Midnight Flyer
  Dm                G             C
I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on

[Verse 1]
 C             F
A runaway team of horses
      C
Ain't enough to make me stay
   F
So throw your rope on another man
                      G
And pull him down your way
C              F
Make him into someone
   C             Am
To take the place of me
Dm
Make him ev'ry kind of fool
   G         C
You wanted me to be

[Chorus]
F          C
Ooh Midnight Flyer
F                                C
Engineer won't you let your whistle moan
F          C  Am
Ooh Midnight Flyer
  Dm                G             C
I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on
  C              F
Maybe I'll go to Santa Fe
 C          Am
Maybe San Antone
  F
Any town is where i'm bound
                  G
Any way to get me gone
C             F
Don't think about me
   C                 Am
Never let me cross your mind
Dm
'cept when you hear that midnight
   G           C
Lonesome whistle whine

F         C
Ooh Midnight Flyer
F                               C
Engineer won't you let your whistle moan
F         C    Am
Ooh Midnight Flyer
 Dm              G                 C  Am
I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on
 Dm              G                 Bb   F
I paid my dues and I feel like trav'lin' on
C
