Intro: E A Dbm B E
The Mississippi Delta was shining
A
Like a National guitar
Dbm
I am following the river
Down the highway
B
Through the cradle of the civil war
A E
I'm going to Graceland
Graceland
B
In Memphis Tennessee
A E E D A
I'm going to Graceland
E
Poorboys and Pilgrims with families
B A E E D A
And we are going to Graceland
E B
My traveling companion is nine years old
A E E D A
He is the child of my first marriage
E
But I've reason to believe
B A
We both will be received
E E D A
In Graceland
E
She comes back to tell me she's gone
A
As if I didn't know that
Dbm
As if I didn't know my own bed
B
As if I'd never noticed
E
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead
And she said losing love
A
Is like a window in your heart
Dbm A
Everybody sees you're blown apart
B
Everybody sees the wind blow
A E
I'm going to Graceland
B
Memphis Tennessee
A E E D A
I'm going to Graceland
E
Poorboys and Pilgrims with families
B A E E D A
And we are going to Graceland
E
And my traveling companions
A
Are ghosts and empty sockets
E E D A
I'm looking at ghosts and empties
E
But I've reason to believe
B A
We all will be received
E E D A
In Graceland
E
There is a girl in New York City
A
Who calls herself the human trampoline
Dbm
And sometimes when I'm falling, flying
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
B
WOh, so this is what she means
E
She means we're bouncing into Graceland
And I see losing love
A
Is like a window in your heart
Dbm
Everybody sees you're blown apart
B
Everybody feels the wind blow
E E D A
Oooo in Graceland, in Graceland
E E D A
I'm going to Graceland
E
For reasons I cannot explain
B A
There's some part of me wants to see
E E D A
Graceland
E
And I may be obliged to defend
A
Every love, every ending
E E D A
Or maybe there's no obligations now
E
Maybe I've a reason to believe
B A
We all will be received
E E D A
In Graceland
