Midnight At The Movies

Capo 5

Intro: C/G/F (x3)
       G

(Basically just C/G/F/G during the verses)

         C             G 
Well the couple in the corner
     F           G         C        G    F    G
Been going at it all night long
    C            G    
The man in the back
        F        G        C         G    F    G 
Putting bets out over the phone

    Am          G          F    
And I ain't got nowhere to be
Am           G          F            
Ain't nobody waiting at home for me
G                    C          G        F
And there's nothing lonelier than
   G            C        G          F    G
Midnight at the movies, again

There's a girl named Martha
Who meets me here on Saturday nights
She never says too much
She just sits down beside me and puts her hand in mine
She's got a gentle way
That keeps me from feeling so alone
She always shows up late
And leaves before the credits roll

And I never watch her leave
I just close my eyes and pretend I'm asleep 
Until the second feature begins
Midnight at the movies, again

C/G/F (x3)
G

(Bridge)

        F          G  
So it's half-price, double feature
C       C/B           Am        G
Two and quarter after seven o’clock
           F           G       
And there's no smoking, no drinking
F                        G      
Get your candies and your red-hots, said
F                        G   
Get your candies and your red-hots

So shut out the lights
Tell those fools down front to take a seat
And if you see my Martha
Tell her I'm in the corner
And just wake me if I'm asleep

C/G/F (x3)
