You got it bad, but you know it's true 
BI (x2444x@1)caught up with a friend in Dallas
G#mWe (133111@4)took a trip to New Orleans
C#mThose (x13321@4)black-eyed ladies
F#Won't (244322@1)say they're sorry 

We finally caught a train to Memphis
Where everybody talks the same
Those blue suede babies
All know my name 
chorus:
            BAnd (x2444x@1)I said hold tight
                      EbCan't (x43121@3)you see it's hurting me

We ended up in North Dakota
Although my heart's in Mexico
My munequita (?)
Abra tus ojos

With your new suit, and your black tie
Hold on, you're just a gambling man, all proper like
I broke to the right and I caught your eye
Shut your mouth and wave goodbye
Tonight, I ain't gonna let you rain on this parade 

And I said hold tight
Can't you see it's hurting me
But I've got the buzz
Like Marlon Brando
Straight faced with misery tonight 

And I will not lie when I say I ain't cold no more
But I've got the buzz
Like Greta Garbo
Walking forwards in the sun
                                     G#mAnd (133111@4)I've got a cold tale left to write 

C#mWell (x13321@4)uh oh
