Chords for Christine Parker - Elvis Presley Blues (Gillian Welch cover)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died _
I was thinking that night [E] about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died _
He's just a country boy, _ combing his hair
Put on a shirt his mother made and he went on the air
[C#m] And he shook it like a chorus girl _ _
And he shook it like a Harlem [E] queen _ _
[C#m] And he shook it like a midnight [E] ramblin' baby
Like you've never seen, you've never seen, you've never seen
I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died
How he took it all back in the light
He grabbed his [A] wand in the other hand [E] and he held on tight
[C#m] And he shook it like a hurricane
[E] And _ [C#m] he shook it like to make it [E] rain
_ [C#m] And he shook it like a holy [E] _ molec baby
With [A] his soul that stayed, [E] soul that stayed, _ soul that stayed
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I was thinking that night about Elvis
_ The day that he died, the day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died
[G#] _ He was all alone, in the long line
He [A] was thinking how happy John Henry was [E] when he fell down and died
[C#m] And he shook it and it rang like [E] silver
_ [C#m] And he shook it and it shined like [E] gold _
_ [C#m] And he shook it and he beat the [E] steam drill baby
Well it blessed my soul, blessed my soul, blessed my soul _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] And he shook it and it rang like [E] silver
And [C#m] he shook it and it shined like [E] gold
And [C#m] he shook it and he beat the [E] steam drill baby
[F#] Well it blessed my soul, _ blessed my soul, _ blessed my soul
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _
