I Try to Think About Elvis Patty Loveless
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: *Spoken*
"And, action!"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Forgot where I was."
"Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut! Patty, please, I know you can do this."
[C]
I try to think about Elvis, Memphis
Oprah in the afternoon
I try to think about [F]palm trees, fig leaves
The [C]creature from the Black Lagoon
I try to think about high heels, and good deals
Anything to get me [Am]through [G]
I just can't concentrate[F]
You're all I [G]think about the[C]se days
N.C. C
I try to contemplate the cosmos, what goes
'Round and 'round the sky at night
I try to think about [F]champagne, freight trains
[C]Slowly rolling out of sight
I try to focus on the headlines, street crimes
Every time I think I [Am]might [G]
I just can't concentrate[F]
You're all I [G]think about the[C]se days
CHORUS:
My mind [Am]wanders where it [D7]will
When it [F]settles right on [C]you
I for[Am]get what I should [D7]say
I for[F]get what I should [G]do
INSTRUMENTAL: Bb C F G C
CHORUS:
My mind [Am]wanders where it [D7]will
When it [F]settles right on [C]you
I for[Am]get what I should [D7]say
I for[F]get what I should [G]do
INTERLUDE: *Spoken*
"Ah, come on, Patty. Get it together"
**Key Change - Up 2 Semitones**
N.C. D
I try to think about Shakespeare, leap year
The Beatles or the Rolling Stones
I try to think about [G]hair-do's, tattoos
[D]Sushi bars and saxophones
I try to think about the talk shows, new clothes
But I guess I should've kno[Bm]wn [A]
I just can't concentrate[G]
You're all I [A]think about the[Bm]se da[E]ys [G]
You're all I [A]think about th[D]ese days
