#1.
A5                  D5                    A5
Me and my baby, we left on the midnight bus.
A5                        D5                  A5
Pulled out of Durham and left in a cloud of dust.
A5                        D5               A5
Headed for the border of North and South Caroline.
D5           E5                A5
This time tomorrow she'll be mine.

#2.
A5                         D5                     A5
After we had ridden for a while on the midnight bus.
A5               D5            A5
We fell out and had an awful fuss.
A5                 D5                   A5
Said goodbye, and I pulled the buzzer chord.
D5                 E5                  A5
I got off and the driver slammed the door.

#3.
A5                D5                    A5
Left and lost my baby on the midnight bus.
A5                D5                    A5
Left and lost my baby on the midnight bus.
      E5               D5             A5        
She's gone, my baby's gone and I'm alone. 

#4.
A5                        D5                   A5
Standin' in the highway, holdin' my suitcase tight.
A5                      D5               A5
Watching that midnight bus pull out of sight.
      E5               D5             A5
She's gone, my baby's gone and I'm alone.
