[E] [Bb] [C] [G]
[D] [G] I hitchhiked up to Memphis, a young boy in my prime.
[C] I thought that big old city could ease my [G] Jordan mine.
After just one hour, [Bm]
I met this southern girl.
She [C] said to call me the Queen of Memphis.
Then she [D] took [G] me around the world.
And I [D] saw stars [C] dancing on [G] the water.
I [Em] heard Elvis [D] singing blues [C] with you.
That [D] old nun [C] was [G] my witness.
[C] [G] That night I fell [D] in love with the Queen [G] of Memphis.
[Gm] I [C]
[F] [G] [D]
[G] woke up the next morning, a prisoner of her charm.
[C] She showed me things I'd never seen back there on [G] that farm.
[G]
She set my soul on fire.
[Bm] She filled all my dreams.
[C] A boy became a man that night [D] in the arms of the Memphis [G] Queen.
[D] And I saw [C] stars dancing on [G] the water.
I [Em] heard Elvis [D] singing blues with [C] you.
That [D] old nun [C] was [G] my witness.
[C] [G] That night I fell [D] in love with the Queen [G] of Memphis.
[D] [Em] Just like that old man river, she [G] keeps rolling through my mind.
[D] [Em] And you know I won't forget her.
[C] Cause she was one [D] of a kind.
And I saw [C] stars dancing [G] on the water.
I [Em] heard Elvis [D] singing blues with [C] you.
That [D] old nun [C] was [G] my witness.
[C] [G] That night I fell [D] in love with the Queen [G] of Memphis.
And I am still [D] in love with the Queen [G] of Memphis.
