Graceland

[D] [G] [Bm] [A]   [D]

The Mississippi Delta was shining
Like a National gui[G]tar
I am [Bm]following the river

Down the highway
Through the cradle of the civil [A]war

[G]I'm going to [D]Graceland

Graceland
In Memphis Tennes[A]see
I'm [G]going to [D]Graceland [D]   [C]     [G]

[D]Poorboys and Pilgrims with families
And [A]we are [G]going to [D]Graceland[D]  [C]    [G]
My [D]traveling companion is nine years [A]old
[G]He is the [D]child of my first marriage[D]  [C]    [G]
But I've [D]reason to believe
We [A]both will be re[G]ceived
In [D]Graceland [D]   [C]     [G]

[D]

She comes back to tell me she's gone
As [G]if I didn't know that
As if I didn't know my own [Bm]bed
As [A]if I'd never noticed
The way she brushed her hair from her [D]forehead

And she said losing love
Is like a window in your [G]heart
Everybody sees you're [Bm]blown a[G]part
Everybody sees the [A]wind blow

I'm [G]going to [D]Graceland
Memphis Tennes[A]see
I'm [G]going to [D]Graceland [D]   [C]     [G]
[D]Poorboys and Pilgrims with families
And [A]we are [G]going to [D]Graceland [D]   [C]     [G]

And my [D]traveling companions
Are ghosts and empty [G]sockets
I'm looking at ghosts and [D]empties [D]   [C]     [G]
But I've [D]reason to believe
We [A]all will be re[G]ceived
In [D]Graceland[D]  [C]    [G]

[D]

There is a girl in New York City
Who calls herself the human trampo[G]line
And [Bm]sometimes when I'm falling, flying

Or tumbling in turmoil I say
[A]WOh, so this is what she means
She means we're [D]bouncing into Graceland

And I see losing love
Is like a window in your [G]heart
Everybody sees you're [Bm]blown apart
Everybody feels the [A]wind blow

Oooo in [D]Graceland, in Graceland[D]  [C]    [G]
I'm going to [D]Graceland[D]  [C]    [G]
For reasons I [D]cannot explain
There's some part of me [A]wants to [G]see
[D]Graceland[D]  [C]    [G]

And I may be ob[D]liged to defend
Every love, every [G]ending
Or maybe there's [D]no obligations now [D]   [C]     [G]
Maybe I've a [D]reason to believe
We [A]all will be re[G]ceived
In [D]Graceland [D]   [C]     [G]
