From Graceland To The Promised Land chords by Merle Haggard

G             Am       C         G
From the Sun years of the Fifties and the birth of rock and roll

D7                 G
Millions screamed to see him do his thing

         Am   C       G
Elvis touched the life of every ear that heard him

              D7       G
And they couldn't help but listen when he sang


    C               G
It's a long way from Memphis to that mansion in the sky

    D7              G
But he kept his faith in Jesus all along

    C               G       C
It's a long way from Graceland across Jordan to the Promised Land

  G       D7        G
But Jesus finally came to lead him home


             Am      C        G
From the days of Love Me Tender to his momma's last farewell

D7                 G
Some say he knew how long he had to stay

           Am       C        G
His life was two days longer than the one who gave him life

            D7      G
