The Midnight Special – Creedance – Ukulele Chords

Verse:

C Well you wake up in the F mornin’

you hear the work bell C ring  

And they march you to the G table  

to see the same old C thing

Ain’t no food upon the F table

and no pork up in the C pan

 But you better not com G plain boy

you get in trouble with the C man

Chorus:

Let the midnight F special shine a light on C me

Let the midnight G special shine a light on C me

Let the midnight F special shine a light on C me

 Let the midnight G special shine a everlovin’ light on C me

Verse:

C Yonder come Miss F Rosie

how in the world did you C know?

By the way she wears her G apron

and the clothes she C wore

Umbrella on her F shoulder

piece of paper in her C hand

 She come to see the G govnor

she wants to free her C man

Chorus:

Let the midnight F special shine a light on C me

Let the midnight G special shine a light on C me

 Let the midnight F special shine a light on C me

 Let the midnight G special shine a everlovin’ light on C me

Verse:

If you’re ever in F Houston

well you better do the C right

 You better not G gamble there

you better not C fight at all

Or the sheriff will F grab ya

and the boys will bring you C down

The next thing you G know boy oh!

You’re prison C bound
