  			              A7                  
I go out walkin'  after midnight 
                 D7/9              / 
Out in the moonlight  just like we used to do 
                 A7               (F7 
I'm always walkin'  after midnight 
  E7)              A7        E7 
Searching for you 
                 A7                    
I walk for miles  along the highway 
                      D7/9             
Well that's just my way of saying I love you 
                 A7                (F7 
I'm always walkin'  after midnight 
  E7)              A7            
Searching for you 

                   D7                              Dm7 
I stopped to see a weeping willow  cryin' on his pillow 
  A7                               D7 
Maybe he's cryin' for me  and as the skies turn gloomy 
Dm7                                  A7                            E7 
Night winds whisper to me  I'm lonesome as I can be 

                 A7                  
I'm go out walkin'  after midnight 
                 D7/9                
Out in the starlight   just hoping you may be 
                   A7               (F7 
Somewhere walkin'  after midnight 
E7)                A7                              E7 
Searching for me 

                     A7                (F7         E7)                A7 
Somewhere a-walkin'  after midnight  searching for me 
                      A7               (F7         E7)                A7 
Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight   searching for me
