Intro: C5

F5   G5     C5          A5         F5     G5        C5  A5
Put on my blue suede shoes and I boarded the plane
F5                   G5           C5     A5
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
F5                    G5       C5    A5
In the middle of the pouring rain 
F5 G5   C5      A5 F5                G5    C5   A5
 W.C. Handy, won't you look down over me?  
F5             G5       C5          A5
Yeah, I got a first class ticket 
         F5           G5        C5
But I'm as blue as a boy can be...

                           F5      G5   C5
Then I'm wal[Am]king in Memphis,  
A5                    F5        G5        C5
I was walking with my feet ten feet off Beale,
A5            F5      G5   C5
Walking in Memphis,
A5              F5        G5            G5 C5
But do I really feel the way I feel? 

{end_of_chorus}
F5       G5        C5    A5 F5 G5       C5  A5
Saw the ghost of Elvis on Union avenue,
F5            G5         C5        A5
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
       F5           G5          C5      A5
Then I watched him walk right through
       F5           G5       C5      A5
Now, security they did not see him
         F5         G5        C5    A5
They just hovered around his tomb.
              F5             G5     C5               A5
But there's a pretty little thing waiting for the King
F5           G5      C5
Down in the jungle room

           C5           C5    C5  C5
They've got gospel in the air  
                   E5         F5
And Reverend Green be glad to see you
            F#5        G5            C5   C5
When you haven't got a prayer        
                               F5      G5   C5    A5
But boy you got a prayer in Memphis...

Now, Muriel plays piano   every friday at the Hollywood
F5        G5                  C5      A5
And they brought me down to see her
F5        G5            C5     A5
And they asked me if I would
F5    G5      C5     A5
Do a little number
     F5          G5      C5    A5
And I sang with all my might
          F5            G5     C5          A5
She said "Tell me, are you a Christian, child?"
            F5        G5     C5
And I said "Ma'am , I am tonight."

{c:Chorus}

Put on my blue suede shoes and I boarded the plane
F5                   G5           C5     A5
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
F5                    G5       C5    A5
In the middle of the pouring rain
F5                   G5           C5     A5
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
F5                    G5       C5   A5
In the middle of the pouring rain
