(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)
