[Verse 1]
C      G                Am            F
Just a small town girl,     living in a lonely world
C            G                    Em7   F
She took the midnight train going any---where
C      G         Am                     F
Just a city boy,     born and raised in South Detroit
C            G                    Em7   F
She took the midnight train going any---where

C             G            Am
A singer in a smoky room
                    F
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
C                    G
For a smile they can share the night
        Em7           F           F ↓↓↓↓ ↓↓↓↓

Strum Pattern - Uke2 Dd-Dd-Dd-Dd  Uke1 & Uke3 D-DU-UDU
F                  C
Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
F                       C
Their shadows searching in the night
F                    C
Streetlights people, living just to find emotion
F                          F      G ↓ C ↓  G ↓ F ↓↓
Hiding, somewhere in the night

Payin' anything to roll the dice
     Em7      F
Just one more time
C              G
