Walking In Memphis

Chords
pin

F   G     C          Am
Put on my blue suede shoes and
  F       G   C      Am
I boarded the plane
F       G           C           Am
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
       F             G       C      Am
In the middle of the pouring rain


F G  C     Am
W.C. Handy
          F         G    C   Am
Won't you look down over me
F             G     C             Am
Yeah, I got a first class ticket
           F         G       C      Am
But I'm as blue as a boy can be


C        Am         F         G         C
Then I'm walking in Memphis
      Am              F        G           C
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Am         F             G           C
Walking in Memphis
Am              F        G     
But do I really feel the way I feel?

F         G        C     Am F     G       C      Am
I saw the ghost of Elvis on Union Avenue
F            G         C        Am 
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
F                  G          C          Am   
Then I watched him walk right through

     F            G       C      Am
Now, security did not see him
          F       G         C    Am
They just hovered round his tomb
    F                       G    
But there's a pretty little thing
C               Am
Waiting for the King
NC.
And she's down in the jungle room

C        Am         F      G         C
Then I'm walking in Memphis
  Am                  F        G           C
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Am         F             G           C
Walking in Memphis
Am              F        G     Gsus
But do I really feel the way I feel?

                 Csus4      C   Csus4  C
Now, they've got catfish on the table
            Csus4      C  Csus4   C
They've got gospel in the air
             E7         F
And Reverend Green, be glad to see you
     F#dim       G7    C      G   C
When you haven't got a prayer
NC      F         G         C        Am   
But boy you got a prayer in Memphis

 F          G     C    Am
Now Muriel plays piano 
F                   G       C     Am
Every Friday at the Hollywood 
F        G                  C       Am
And they brought me down to see her 
F                 G    C     Am
And they asked me if I would
F    G      C     Am 
Do a little number 
      F         G      C     Am
And I sang with all my might
               F           G     C         Am 
And she said, "Tell me are you a Christian child?" 
N.C.
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight" 

 C        Am         F      G         C
Then I'm walking in Memphis 
Am              F        G           C
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale 
Am         F             G           C
Walking in Memphis 
Am              F        G     Gsus
But do I really feel the way I feel? 

F   G     C          Am
Put on my blue suede shoes and
  F       G   C      Am
I boarded the plane
F       G           C           Am
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
       F             G       C      Am
In the middle of the pouring rain

F                   G           C     Am
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues 
F                    G       C    Am  
In the middle of the pouring rain
