COVER VERSION
[Verse]
C
Mississippi Delta was shining
F
Like a National guitar
Am
I am following the river
Down the highway
G
Through the cradle of the civil war
[Chorus]
C
I'm going to Graceland
Graceland
G
In Memphis Tennessee
F
I'm going to Graceland
C G
Poor boys and Pilgrims with families
F
And we are going to Graceland
C G
My traveling companion is nine years old
F
He is the child of my first marriage
C
But I've reason to believe
G
We all will be received
F
In Graceland
[Verse]
C
She comes back to tell me she's gone
F
As if I didn't know that
Am
As if I didn't know my own bed
G
As if I'd never noticed
C
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead
And she said losing love
F
Is like a window in your heart
Am
Everybody sees you're blown apart
G
Everybody sees the wind blow
[Chorus]
C
... Graceland, Graceland
G
Memphis Tennessee
F
I'm going to Graceland
C G
Poor boys and Pilgrims with families
F
And we are going to Graceland
C
And my traveling companions
G
Are ghosts and empty sockets
F
I'm looking at ghosts and empties
C
But I've reason to believe
G
We all will be received
F
In Graceland
[Chorus]
C G
Oooo Graceland, Graceland
F
I'm going to Graceland
C
For reasons I cannot explain
G
There's some part of me wants to see
F
Graceland
C
And I may be obliged to defend
G
Every love and every ending
F
Or maybe there's no obligations now
C
But I've a reason to believe
G
We all will be received
F
In Graceland
[Outro]
C G
Oooo Graceland, Graceland
F
I'm going to Graceland
C G
Graceland, Graceland
F
I'm going to Graceland
