INTRO: C  F  C  Em  F 
C                        F                   C 
I HEARD A RUMOR THAT YOU UP AND SLIPPED THIS TOWN 
C               Em 
FLAMED OUT AND FALLIN SOUTH 
         F 
TRYIN TO LAY AN OLD GHOST DOWN 
        C                   F                        C  
BUT OLD LOVERS, GIRL, HAUNT THE HIGHWAY WHERE YOU'RE BOUND 
C             Em                              F                Am   G 
OUT THERE THE TEARS HIT HARD ENOUGH TO TURN A RED ROSE WHISKEY BROWN 
 
BABE IT'S INDIAN COUNTRY IN THE SHADOWS OF A HONKY TONK 
AMBUSH YOUR ONE LAST CHANCE 
ONE MAN COULD SATISFY YOUR WANT 
AND IT'S A MARLBORO LIGHT AND HALF A CASE OF PEARL 
WHEN YOU FIND THAT THE REDNECKS AREN'T GOOD MULES 
FOR CARRYIN THE GUILT OF A CATHOLIC GIRL 

F 
MIDNIGHT LOVES THE LONESOME 
C                            Em 
COME ON, LAY ONE MORE ROUNDER DOWN 
        F                   G              Am 
ANOTHER LIGHT GOES OUT IN A MOTEL SOUTH OF TOWN 
F                             G              C 
SUCH A LONESOME SOUND WHEN AN ANGEL HITS THE GROUND  
 
 
SOMETIMES YOU GET TO SLIDING AND IT SURE GETS HARD TO STOP 
TILL YOU SLIDE ON DOWN IN THE BACKSEAT  
YOU'RE THE BRAND NEW QUEEN OF THE PARKING LOT 
HAVE ANOTHER MARLBORO LIGHT, BABE, ONE MORE ROUND OF PEARL 
WHEN YOU FIND IT SURE IS A LONG WAY HOME 
CARRYING THE GUILT OF A CATHOLIC GIRL 
 
 
MIDNIGHT FOOLS THE LONESOME 
INTO PICKIN UP THEM DIAMONDS OFF THE GROUND 
ANOTHER LIGHT GOES OUT IN THE MOTEL SOUTH OF TOWN 
COME MORNING GIRL, IT'S ALWAYS BROKEN GLASS THAT YOU FOUND
