E A E
The evening is lonesome, babe
D A E
And the dead of night is cruel
E A E
And I recall all the things we done
D A E
You know I'm always loving you
Sometimes I think that my train done gone
The way all old things must do
Yet I still wait for its return
Just like I still wait for you
A B E
And I still hear that old whippoorwill
A B E
I've seen the ghost of a midnight train
A B A
And I still love to walk alone
E D A E
Down by the old Union station in the rain
Now I don't know where you are tonight
but I feel you cross the miles
And I'm still standing there inside your mind
Just behind your pretty smile
Chorus 2:
Hey babe can't you hear that old whipporwill
Have you seen the ghost on the midnight train
Do you still love to to go alone
Down by the old Union station in the rain
Down by the old Montgomery station in the rain
