E                       B                E
Sittin' in the barroom, orderin' another beer
            A                                    E 
She stepped up on the stage but nobody wanted to hear
          B                       A           E
And every word she sang was sweet music to my ears


Chorus:
        A        B                    E 
Elise, Elise I believe every word you say
       A        B                    E
Elise Elise I believe every word you say
         C#m                               A                B
It don't matter if the world don't listen, don't you pay no heed
       A             B                   E
Elise Elise come and sing your song with me


I sat there at the bar she sang the blues all night
Singing straight from the heart, living every line
I wanna tell you girl, you touched this heart of mine


Chorus:
        A        B                    E 
Elise, Elise I believe every word you say
       A        B                    E
Elise Elise I believe every word you say


End of the night when they turned the lights down low
While the band packed up, she was standing there ready to go
I walked up and said hey I just want to let you know


Chorus
