                (Main)                (Main)
Well I've got to run.....to keep from hiding


        (Main)               (Main)
And I'm bound.....to keep on riding


            (Main)                (Main)
And I've got one more.....silver dollar


        Gm         
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me no


 C                                       (Main)
Not gonna let 'em catch.....the midnight rider


           (Main)                   (Main)
And I don't own.....the clothes I'm wearing


       (Main)              (Main)
And the road.....goes on forever


            (Main)                 (Main)
And I've got one more.....silver dollar


        Gm
But I'm not gonna let 'em catch me no


 C                                       (Main)
Not gonna let 'em catch.....the midnight rider

              (Main)               (Main)
And I've gone by.....the point of caring
