Verse 1
Well you (D major) wake up in (G major) the morning
you hear the work bell ring (D major)
And they march you to the table (E major)
to (A major) see the same old (D major) thing
Ain't no food upon the (G major) table and
no fork up in the pan (D major)
But you better (E major) not complain boy you (A major) get
in trouble with the man (D major) (G major) (D major)
Let the Midnight (G major) Special shine a (D major) light on me
Let the Midnight Special (E major)
shine (A major) a light on me
(D major) Let the Mid (G major) night Special
shine a light (D major) on me
Let the Midnight Special (E major) shine a (A major) ever
loving light on (D major) me (G major) (D major)
Yonder come miss (G major) Rosie,
how in the world did you know? (D major)
By (E major) the way she wears her apron,

Umbrella on her shoulder, (G major)
