4     4   5   5    5  -4
Mid-night in Mont-gom-ery

4   -4   4  4     4   4  4
Sil-ver ea-gle, lone-ly road

4  4   4   4  4  4  4   4
I was on my way to Mo-bile 

4   4   4   4   4    4   4
For a big New Years Eve show

5    4     5    4   5  5  4
I stopped for just a min-ute 

4   4  4   4     4   4    4  4
To see a friend out-side of town

4    4  4   4   4  4   4    4   4
Put my col-lar up, I found his name, 

4    4    5   6    -4  4
And felt the wind die down

5   5   4    4  5   5  4  -4
And a drunk man in a cow-boy

4    -4  4   4   4  -4
Hat took me by sur-prise

4     4   4   4   4    4  4  4  4
Wear-ing shi-ny boots, a Nu-di suit

4     4    4   4    4   4
And haunt-ing haunt-ed eyes

-4   5     4      4    4   5  5   4
He said "Friend it's good to see you

4      4  4    4   4   -4
It's nice to know you care"

4     4    4    4    4
Then the wind picked up 

4   4    4   4
And he was gone

4  -4   4  5   4  6   -4
Was he ev-er real-ly there


CHORUS

6    -4   -5b   4   5   4  4
It’s mid-night in Mont-gom-ery

4      4    4   4    -6b   6
Just hear that whip-poor will

-6b -6b   4     4   -4
See the stars light up 

-6b  4   5   4
The pur-ple sky

4      5    4    5    4
Feel that lone-some chill

-6b  -6b  -4  -6  -4
When the wind is right

-6b      -4 -6 -4
You'll hear a song

-6b     5  -6b  4  -6b 4
Smell whis-key in the air

-4    4    4   5   4   4
Mid-night in Mont-gom-ery

4     4   4    4   4   4
He's al-ways sing-ing there


VERSE 2

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


REPEAT CHORUS

4     4   4    4    4   4
He's al-ways sing-ing there

4      4    4    4   4   4
Hank's al-ways sing-ing there
