Well the [E]couple in th[B]e corner bee[A]n goin' at i[B]t all nigh[E]t long[A] [B]
[E]Man in th[B]e back puttin[A]' bets ou[B]t over th[E]e phone[A] [B]
And [C#m]I ain't got [B]nowhere to [A]be,[B] [C#m]ain't nobody [B]waitin' at [A]home for [B]me
And there's nothin' [E]lonelier than[A] mid[B]night at the [E]movies again [A][B]

There's a [E]girl name[B]d Martha tha[A]t meets me here o[B]n Saturda[E]y nigh[A]t [B]
Never [E]says to[B]o much she jus[A]t sits down [B]beside me and puts he[E]r hand in min[A]e [B]
She's got a [E]gentl[B]e way that[A] keeps me from[B] feelin' so[E] lonel[A]y [B]
She always [E]shows u[B]p late an[A]d leaves before th[B]e credit[E]s roll[A] [B]
Yeah, and [C#m]i never [B]watch her [A]lea[B]ve, I just[C#m] close my[B] eyes and pr[A]eten[B]d i'm asleep
Until the [E]second feature begins,[A] mid[B]night at the [E]movies again [A][B]

So it's [A]half price, [B]double feature
[E]Two and a quarter after [C#m]seven o'clock
And [A]there's no smokin',[B] no drinkin'
[A]Get your candies and your [B]red hots
[A]Get your candies and your [B]red hots

So s[E]hut out th[B]e ligh[A]ts and tell thos[B]e fools down front t[E]o take a sea[A]t [B]
And if [E]you see m[B]y Martha tell he[A]r i'm in th[B]e corner and jus[E]t wake me if i'm[A] aslee[B]p
