MIDNIGHT RIDER- The Allman Brothers



TUNING: D A D G B D



D

I got to run to keep from hiding

D

And I'm bound to keep on riding

D

And I've got one more silver dollar

Gm7

But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no

Am7 D

Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider



I don't own the clothes I'm wearing

And the road goes on forever

And I've got one more silver dollar

But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no

Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider



BRIDGE:

D Am7 Gm7 Am7 Gm7 Am7 Gm Gm7 Gm7addE Gm7 D



I've gone past the point of caring

Some old bed I'll soon be sharing

And I've got one more silver dollar

But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no

Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider



No I'm not gonna let them catch me, no

Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider (repeat both lines 2X)
