Graceland

|(E) | 
The Mississippi Delta was shining 
 
|(A) | 
Like a National guitar 
 
|(C#m) 
I am following the river 
 
| 
Down the highway 
 
|(B) | 
Through the cradle of the civil war 
 
 
(A) |(E) 
I‘m going to Graceland, Graceland 
 
| (B) 
In Memphis Tennessee 
 
(A) |(E) | (D) (A)| 
I‘m going to Graceland

Poor boys and Pilgrims with families

(A) |(E) | (B) 
My traveling companion is nine years old

She comes back to tell me she‘s gone 
 
|(A) 
As if I didn‘t know that 
 
| |(C#m) | 
As if I didn‘t know my own bed 
 
|(B) | 
As if I‘d never noticed 
 
|(E) | 
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead 
 
| | 
And she said losing love 
 
| | 
Is like a window in your heart 
 
|(C#m) | 
Everybody sees you‘re blown apart 
 
|(B) | 
Everybody sees the wind blow 
 
 
(A) |(E) | 
I‘m going to Graceland 
 
(B) 
Memphis Tennessee 
 
(A) |(E) | (D) (A)|

Poor boys and Pilgrims with families 
 
(B) (A) |(E) | (D) 
And we are going to Graceland 
 
(A) |(E) | (B) (A) 
My traveling companions are ghosts and empty sockets 
 
|(E) | (D) 
I‘m looking at ghosts and empties 
 
(A) |(E) 
But I‘ve reason to believe 
 
| (B) (A) |(E) | (D) (A)|(E) |

| 
There is a girl in New York City 
 
| |(A) | 
Who calls herself the human trampoline 
 
|(C#m) | 
And sometimes when I‘m falling, flylng 
 
| | 
Or tumbling in turmoil I say 
 
(B) | 
Oh, so this is what she means 
 
|(E) | 
She means we‘re bouncing into Graceland 
 
| | 
And I see losing love 
 
| | 
Is like a window in your heart 
 
|(C#m) | 
Everybody sees you‘re blown apart 
 
|(B) | 
Everybody feels the wind blow 
 
 
|(E) | 
In Graceland, in Graceland 
 
(B) (A) |(E) | (D) 
I‘m going to Graceland 
 
(A) |(E) 
For reasons I cannot explain 
 
| (B) (A) | 
There‘s some part of me wants to see 
 
(E) | 
Graceland 
 
(D) (A) |(E) 
And I may be obliged to defend 
 
| (B) 
Everv love, every ending 
 
(A) |(E) | (D) 
Or maybe there‘s no obligations now 
 
(A) |(E) 
Maybe I‘ve a reason to believe

We all will be received 
 
(A) |(E) | 
In Graceland
