Intro: D   D* D

    D
The Mississippi Delta was shining

                   D*  Gadd9  Gadd9*
Like a national guitar

     Bm7
I am following the river

         Bm9
Down the highway

                                Aadd11
Through the cradle of the civil war

Gadd9              D
  And I'm going to Graceland

              Gadd9
Memphis, Tennessee

             D           Aadd11  D     Gadd9  D
I'm going to Graceland




(D)                                    D*  D
She comes back to tell me she's gone

  Gadd9
As if I didn't know that

  Gadd9*                   Bm7   Bm9
As if I didn't know my own bed

  Aadd11
As if I'd never noticed

            Gadd9       D                       Aadd11   D
The way she brushes her hair from her forehead

(D)
And she said losing love

                         Gadd9   Gadd9*
Is like a window in your heart

                    Bm7               Bm9
Everybody sees you're blown apart

                   Aadd11
Everybody sees the wind blow

Gadd9              D
  And I'm going to Graceland,

              Gadd9
Memphis, Tennessee,

             D           Aadd11   D
I'm going to Graceland


Interlude:  D  Aadd11  Bm7  Aadd11  D  Aadd11  Bm7



(chords are the same as last time around)

There is a girl in New York City
She calls herself the human trampoline
And sometimes when I'm falling, flying
Tumbling in turmoil I say
Oh so is this what she means
She means we're bouncing into Graceland
And I see losing love
Is like a window in your heart
Everybody sees you're blown apart
Everybody feels the wind blow
And I'm going to Graceland,
Memphis, Tennessee,
I'm going to Graceland


End on D
