A The MisEsissippi Delta
Was shining like a National guiAtar
I am C#mfollowing the river down the highway
Through the cradle of the civil Bwar
AI'm going to GraceEland, Graceland
[Chorus]
Memphis, TennesB7see, AI'm going to GraceEland
D A PoorE boys and pilgrims with families And B7we are A
going to Graceland E D A
My traveEling companion is nine years B7old A
He is the child of my first marriage
D A But I've reasonE to believe
We both will be reB7ceivedA in Graceland D A
[Bridge]
E She comes Aback to tellE me she's gone
[Verse 2]
A As if I didn't know that
As if I didn't know my ownC#m bed
As Bif I'd never noticed
The way she brushed her hair from herE fo rehead
And she said losing love
Is like a window in your heart A
Everybody sees you'reC#m blown apart
Everybody sees Bthe wind blow
AI'm going to GraceEland
[Chorus]
Memphis, TennesB7see, AI'm going to GraceEland
D A PoorE boys and pilgrims with families And B7we are A
going to GraceEland
D A And my traveEling companions are ghosts and empty soB7ckets A
I'm looking at ghosts and empties
D A But I've reaEson to believe
We all will be reB7ceivedA in Graceland D A
[Verse 3]
E There Ais a girlE in New York City
Who calls herself the human trampoline
A And C#msometimes when I'm falling, flying
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
"Whoa,B so this is what she means"
She means we're bouncing into EGraceland
And I see losing love
Is like a window in Ayour heart
Well, everybody sees you're C#mblown apart
Everybody feelsB the wind blow
Ooh A
[Chorus]
In GraceEland, Graceland
B7 AI'm going to GraceEland
D AFor reasons I canEnot explain
There's some part of me B7wants Ato see GraceEland
D And AI may be obligedE to defend
Every love, every enB7ding Or A
maybe there's no obligations now
D A Maybe I've a reaEson to believe
We all will be reB7ceivedA in Graceland D A
