Intro: D5   D5 * D5

    D5
The Mississippi Delta was shining

                   D5 *  G5  G5 *
Like a national guitar

     B5
I am following the river

         B5
Down the highway

                                Aadd11
Through the cradle of the civil war

G5              D5
  And I'm going to Graceland

              G5
Memphis, Tennessee

             D5           Aadd11  D5     G5  D5
I'm going to Graceland




( D5 )                                    D5 *  D5
She comes back to tell me she's gone

  G5
As if I didn't know that

  G5 *                   B5   B5
As if I didn't know my own bed

  Aadd11
As if I'd never noticed

            G5       D5                       Aadd11   D5
The way she brushes her hair from her forehead

( D5 )
And she said losing love

                         G5   G5 *
Is like a window in your heart

                    B5               B5
Everybody sees you're blown apart

                   Aadd11
Everybody sees the wind blow

G5              D5
  And I'm going to Graceland,

              G5
Memphis, Tennessee,

             D5           Aadd11   D5
I'm going to Graceland


Interlude:  D5  Aadd11  B5  Aadd11  D5  Aadd11  B5



(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 D5
