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
