Intro: C   C* C

    C
The Mississippi Delta was shining

                   C*  Fadd9  Fadd9*
Like a national guitar

     Am7
I am following the river

         Am9
Down the highway

                                Aadd11
Through the cradle of the civil war

Fadd9              C
  And I'm going to Graceland

              Fadd9
Memphis, Tennessee

             C           Aadd11  C     Fadd9  C
I'm going to Graceland




(C)                                    C*  C
She comes back to tell me she's gone

  Fadd9
As if I didn't know that

  Fadd9*                   Am7   Am9
As if I didn't know my own bed

  Aadd11
As if I'd never noticed

            Fadd9       C                       Aadd11   C
The way she brushes her hair from her forehead

(C)
And she said losing love

                         Fadd9   Fadd9*
Is like a window in your heart

                    Am7               Am9
Everybody sees you're blown apart

                   Aadd11
Everybody sees the wind blow

Fadd9              C
  And I'm going to Graceland,

              Fadd9
Memphis, Tennessee,

             C           Aadd11   C
I'm going to Graceland


Interlude:  C  Aadd11  Am7  Aadd11  C  Aadd11  Am7



(chords are the same as last time around)

There is a girl in New York City
She calls herself the human trampoline
And sometimes when I'm falling, flying
Tumbling in turmoil I say
Oh so is this what she means
She means we're bouncing into Graceland
And I see losing love
Is like a window in your heart
Everybody sees you're blown apart
Everybody feels the wind blow
And I'm going to Graceland,
Memphis, Tennessee,
I'm going to Graceland


End on C
