G   A       D          Bm     
Put on my blue suede shoes 
     G      A           D Bm 
And I boarded the plane 
         G           A           D      Bm 
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues 
        G             A       D  Bm 
In the middle of the pouring rain 
G A    D   Bm 
W. C. Handy  
          G          A     D  Bm 
won 't you look down over me 
 G            A           D    Bm 
Yeah I got a first class ticket 
             G        A        D  Bm 
But I'm as blue as a girl can be 
 
                     G      A | D Bm 
Then I'm walking in Memphis 
                  G            A       D   Bm 
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale 
            G     A | D Bm 
Walking in Memphis 
                 G        A     G(riff.1) G/F# G/E | G/F# 
But do I really feel the way I feel 
 
G(riff.1)            G/F# G/E | G/F# 
Saw the ghost of Elvis 
G(riff.1)    G/F# G/E | G/F# 
On Union Avenue 
             G(riff.1)            G/F# G/E | G/F# 
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland 
         G(riff.1)              G/F# G/E | G/F# 
Then I watched him walk right through 
 
G(riff.1)                   G/F# G/E | G/F# 
Now security they did not see him 
         G(riff.1)            G/F# G/E | G/F# 
They just hovered 'round his tomb 
                G(riff.1)          G/F# G/E | G/F# 
But there's a pretty little thing Waiting for the King

Every Friday at the Hollywood 
           G         A       D     Bm 
And they brought me down to see him 
         G        A     D   Bm 
And they asked me if I would 
G A         D     Bm 
Do a little number 
       G        A       D   Bm 
And I sang with all my might 
         G                 A       D        Bm 
And she said "Tell me are you a Christian child?" 
             G---               D 
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight
