Walking in memphis Marc Cohn
[F]Put [G]on my [C]blue suede [Am]shoes and [F]I boar[G]ded the [C]plane[Am],
Touched [F]down in the [G]land of the [C]Delta [Am]Blues,
In the [F]middle of the [G]pouring [C]rain,[Am]
[F]W.[G]C. [C]Hand[Am]y, won't you [F]look dow[G]n over[C] me,[Am]
[F]Yeah, I got a fi[G]rst class[C] ticket,[Am]
But I'm a[F]s blue as a b[G]oy can b[C]e,
(chorus)
Then I'm w[Am]alking in Me[F]mphis, [G] [-] [C]
[Am]I was walking with my [F]feet ten [G]feet off [C]Beale,
[Am]Walking in Mem[F]phis,[G] [-] [C]
[Am]But do I really [F]feel the w[G]ay I feel, [Gsus/] [G] [-] [C]
(verse 2)
[F]Saw the [G]ghost of [C]Elvis[Am], on [F]Union a[G]venu[C]e,[-] [Am]
Followed him u[F]p to the [G]gates of G[C]raceland,[Am]
Then I[F] watched him[G] walk right[C] through[Am],
Now, s[F]ecurity they[G] did not[C] see him[Am],
They just[F] hovered a[G]round his[C] tomb[Am],
But there's a[F] pretty little [G]thing [C]waiting for the[Am] King,
[F]Down in the[G] jungle [C]room,
(chorus)
Then I'm walking in Memphis,
I was walking with my feet ten feet off Beale,
Walking in Memphis,
But do I really feel the way I feel,
Chords - Csus - C - Csus - C
(bridge)
They've got[Csus] gospel in the[C] air,[Csus] [-] [C]
And Reverend [E7]Green be glad to [F]see you,
When you[F#dim7] haven't got a pra[G7]yer, [C/G] [C]
But boy you got a prayer in Me[F]mphis,[G] [-] [C] [-] [Am]
(verse 3)
Now, [F]Muriel [G]plays pi[C]an[-]o,[Am] [-] every [F]Friday[G] at the Hol[C]lywoo[Am]d,
And they [F]brought me [G]down to see[C] her[Am],
And they [F]asked me [G]if I w[C]ould,[Am]
[F]Do a [G]little [C]number[Am],
And I[F] sang with[G] all my[C] might,[Am]
She said[F] Tell me, are [G]you a [C]Christian,[Am] child,
And I said[F] Ma'am, I [G]am toni[C]ght,
(chorus)
Then I'm walking in Memphis,
I was walking with my feet ten feet off Beale,
Walking in Memphis,
But do I really feel the way I feel,

[F]Put [G]on my [C]blue suede[Am] shoes and I[F] boarde[G]d the plan[C]e,[-] [Am]
Touched [F]down in the [G]land of the [C]Delta [Am]Blues,
In the [F]middle of the[G] pouring[C] rain,[Am]
Touched[F] down in the [G]land of the [C]Delta [Am]Blues,
In the [F]middle of the,
[G]Pouring rain, [-] [F] [-] [G] [-] [C] [-] [Am] [-] [F] [-] [G] [-] [C]
