Intro - F - G - C - Am - F - G - C - Am


(verse 1)
F   G     C          Am        F     G       C    Am
Put on my blue suede shoes and I boarded the plane,
        F           G           C     Am
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues,
       F             G       C    Am
In the middle of the pouring rain,
F G  C   Am             F         G     C   Am
W.C. Handy,   won't you look down over me,
F               G         C       Am
Yeah, I got a first class ticket,
         F            G       C
But I'm as blue as a boy can be,


(chorus)
          Am          F      G - C
Then I'm walking in Memphis, 
Am                    F        G        C
I was walking with my feet ten feet off Beale,
Am            F    G - C
Walking in Memphis,
Am              F         G        Gsus/ G - C
But do I really feel the way I feel,


(verse 2)
F       G        C    Am     F      G   C - Am
Saw the ghost of Elvis,  on  Union avenue,
              F        G         C        Am
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland,
      F           G           C       Am
Then I watched him walk right through,
      F           G        C       Am
Now, security they did not see him,
         F         G         C    Am
They just hovered around his tomb,
             F              G      C              Am
But there's a pretty little thing waiting for the King,
F           G       C
Down in the jungle 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,

They've got catfish on the table
           Csus           C    Csus - C
They've got gospel in the air,
             E7               F
And Reverend Green be glad to see you,
        F#dim7            G7      C/G C
When you haven't got a prayer,
                              F     G - C - Am
But boy you got a prayer in Memphis,


(verse 3)
     F      G       C - Am -      F            G      C    Am
Now, Muriel plays piano,    every Friday at the Hollywood,
         F          G           C   Am
And they brought me down to see her,
         F        G     C    Am
And they asked me if I would,
F    G      C     Am
Do a little number,
     F         G      C      Am
And I sang with all my might,
         F             G     C         Am
She said Tell me, are you a Christian, child,
           F        G     C
And I said Ma'am, I am tonight,

(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,

Pouring rain,
