Intro.:  | (G) | (Em) | x 2

(G) The home of the blues (Em) is where I live
(C) Trapped in-(Em)side these lonely (D)walls that don't forgive
(G) Surrounded by (Em) a memory
(C) Her goodbye (Em)haunts me like a (D)Beale Street melody

(C) And I've done everything, but (D)get down on my knees
(C) And if my (Em)tears will set, this (Am)ghost inside me (D)free

(Chorus)
I'm gonna cry like (G)Memphis, I'm goin' three times (Em)under
Gonna drown my (Am)sorrows with tears that roll like (D)thunder
'Til I can find the (G)strength, 'til I can carry (Em)on
I'm gonna cry like (Am)Memphis, (B) (C) when they (D)heard the King was (G)gone

(G) Love me tender (Em) cuts through the dark
(C) Comin' from an (Em)open window (D) of a passing car
(G) And in that moment, (Em) oh, I believe
(C) That I can (Em)almost feel your (D)body next to me

(C) But one heart beatin' slowly (D)brings me back around
(C) I know you're (Em)gone and I (Am)know when I break-(D)down

(Chorus)
I'm gonna cry like (G)Memphis, I'm goin' three times (Em)under
Gonna drown my (Am)sorrows with tears that roll like (D)thunder
'Til I can find the (G)strength, 'til I can carry (Em)on
I'm gonna cry like (Am)Memphis, (B) (C) when they (D)heard the King was (G)gone

Inst.:  --- | (Em)  | (Am)  | (D)

'Til I can find the (G)strength, 'til I can carry (Em)on
