INTRO: G D G
[G]Love came knockin' [C]one day at my [G]window
I turned my head and [D]looked the other [G]way
A whisper in my [C]head told me I s[G]hould know
Love is an i[D]maginary [G]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:
Oh [C]I can't drive that [C/G]midnight train no [G]more
[C]Her hypnotic [C/G]power has [G]closed that lonely [D]door
I was [C]followin' those [G]crazy tracks but [Em]I'm not sure what [C]for
And [G]I can't drive that [D]midnight train no [G]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
[G]I can't drive that [D]midnight train no [G]more
[G]I can't drive that [D]midnight train no [G]more [D] [G]
