D G
The Mississippi Delta was shining like a National guitar
Bm A
I am following the river down the highway through the cradle of the civil war
G D D A G
I'm going to Graceland, Graceland, Memphis Tennessee
D C G
I'm going to Graceland
D A G D C G
Poorboys and pilgrims with families, and we are going to Graceland
D D A G D C G
My traveling companion is nine years old, he is the child of my first marriage
D D A G
But I've reason to believe we both will be received
D C G
In Graceland
D ...
G
She comes back to tell me she's gone; as if I didn't know that
Bm A
As if I didn't know my own bed; as if I'd never noticed
D
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead
G
And she said losing love is like a window in your heart
Bm A
Everybody sees you're blown apart, everybody sees the wind blow
G D D A G
I'm going to Graceland, Memphis Tennessee
D C G
I'm going to Graceland
D A G D C G
Poorboys and pilgrims with families, and we are going to Graceland
D D A G
And my traveling companions are ghosts and empty sockets
D C G
I'm looking at ghosts and empties
D D A G
But I've reason to believe we all will be received
D C G
In Graceland
D ...
G
There is a girl in New York City who calls herself the human trampoline
Bm
And sometimes when I'm falling, flying, or tumbling in turmoil I say
A D
Whoa, so this is what she means: she means we're bouncing into Graceland
G
And I see losing love is like a window in your heart
Bm A
Everybody sees you're blown apart; everybody feels the wind blow
D D A G D C G
Ooooo in Graceland, in Graceland, ... I'm going to Graceland
D
For reasons I cannot explain
A G D C G
There's some part of me wants to see Graceland
D D A G
And I may be obliged to defend every love, every ending
D C G
Or maybe there's no obligations now
D D A G D C G
Maybe I've a reason to believe we all will be received in Graceland
D G Bm A
Oooh.....
A D D A G D C G
Whoa... in Graceland, in Graceland, in Graceland, ... I'm going to Graceland
