*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS*****
Patty Loveless - I Try To Think About Elvis
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
F
I try to think about palm trees, fig leaves
C
The creature from the Black Lagoon
I try to think about high heels, and good deals
Am G
Anything to get me through
F
I just can't concentrate
G C
You're all I think about these days
N.C. C
I try to contemplate the cosmos, what goes
'Round and 'round the sky at night
F
I try to think about champagne, freight trains
C
Slowly rolling out of sight
I try to focus on the headlines, street crimes
Am G
Every time I think I might
F
I just can't concentrate
G C
You're all I think about these days
CHORUS:
Am D7
My mind wanders where it will
F C
When it settles right on you
Am D7
I forget what I should say
F G
I forget what I should do
INSTRUMENTAL: Bb C F G C
CHORUS:
Am D7
My mind wanders where it will
F C
When it settles right on you
Am D7
I forget what I should say
F G
I forget what I should 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
G
I try to think about hair-do's, tattoos
D
Sushi bars and saxophones
I try to think about the talk shows, new clothes
Bm A
But I guess I should've known
G
I just can't concentrate
A Bm E G
You're all I think about these days
A D
You're all I think about these days
