4/4  Time  
 
INTRO: Dm Dm C C Dm Dm C  C 
 
Dm                       C 
Midnight In Montgomerey. Silver Eagle. Lonely  Road 
      Bb9                   Dm 
I was On My Way To Mobile For A Big New Year's Eve Show 
  Dm                         C 
I  Stoppped For Just A Minute To See A Friend Out Side Of  Town 
       Bb9                        Am 
Put My Collar Up. I Found His Name And Felt The Wind Die  Down 
 
   Dm                  C 
A  Drunk Man In A Cowboy Hat Took Me By  Surprise 
        Bb9                     Dm 
Wearing Shiny Boots, A Nudie Suit And Haunting Haunted  Eyes 
        Dm                      C 
He Said, Friend It's  Good To See You It's Nice To Know You  Care 
         B9                                  Am 
Then The Wind Picked Up And He Was Gone Or Was He Ever Really  There 
 
             Dm 
It's Midnight In  Montgomery 
              Dm 
Just Hear That  Whippoorwill 
        C              Dm 
See The Stars Light Up The Purple  Sky 
Am           
Feel That Lonesome  Chill 
     C 
When The  Wind Is Right You'll Hear His  Song 
     Dm 
Smell  Whisky In The  Air 
C              Bb9 
Midnight In Montgomery 
     Am          Dm 
He's Always Singing There 
Repeat INTRO 
 
  Dm                         C 
I Climbed Back On That Eagle Took One Last Look  Around 
          B9                      Dm 
Through The Red Taillights A Shadow Moved Slowly Across The  Ground 
Dm                         C 
Off Somewhere A Midnight Train Is Slowly Passing  By 
         Bb9 
And I can Hear That Whistle  Blowing  
      Am 
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry {To  CHORUS} 
 
    Am           Dm     Am 
He's Always Singing  There 
                        Dm  
Hank's Always Singing There
