Verse:
                 A5
So the ambulances came
               D5                      G5
They took your pulse and packed up your things
               A5
And the papers read
          C5                         G5
Some boys forget what the heart it brings
                          A5
And the pounding in the street
         D5                  G5
Was your heart in four four time
                   A5
And the taste of defeat
          C5        G5             F5      G5
Was was never too far from your mind


Chorus:

     A5             F5                C5              G5
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
         A5           F5                 C5         G5
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
          A5                     F5              C5              G5
And in my head there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
         A5           F5             C5      G5
I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else


Verse:
           A5
So gravity came
              D5                         G5
And stole the temple that the schoolboys praised
                      A5
And the crowd shuffled in
               C5
You're getting drinks for the same boys
   G5                      A5
Who once bought you everything
                           D5
And the patter on the bar
                 G5
Was just this one time
              A5
The patter on the bar
              C5
Was just this one night
G5           F5   G5
Only to get by


Chorus:

     A5             F5                C5              G5
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
         A5           F5                 C5         G5
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
          A5                     F5              C5              G5
And in my head there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
         A5           F5             C5      G5
I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else


Bridge:


A5                         C5 2      G5 2
    There were Southern accents
           A5                  C5 2   G5 2
    On the radio    As I drove home
           A5
    And at night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
            C5 2                    G5 2
    It's a pretty good song  Maybe you know the rest
A5           C5 2           G5
    Maybe you know the rest


Chorus:

     A5             F5                C5              G5
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
         A5           F5                 C5         G5
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
          A5                     F5              C5              G5
And in my head there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
         A5           F5             C5      G5
I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else


          A5                F5
When our boots they hit the ground       {
            C5                 G5          {
They made a high and lonesome sound      { 3x


          A5                F5
When our boots they hit the ground
            C5        G5                A5
They made a high, a high and lonesome sound
