It's midnight in Memphis, [D] all the girls [A] are out tonight.

Midnight in Memphis, but my true love is [A] not in sight.
[F#m] Oh, the neon is glowing, [E] but I just [A] can't see the light.
Girl, I'm following my footsteps, [D] trying to find [A] myself a friend.
Following [D]
my footsteps, just to see [A] where it might end.
[F#m] Oh, I'm trying to break these blues, [E] but I can't even [A] get them to bend.

when [A] would you take me away?

[A] Midnight in Memphis, [E] it's a long, long time [A] before the day.
It's burning on Beale Street, [D] can't you [A] hear those engines roar?
[D] It's burning on Beale Street, there's a [A] girl in every door.
Girl in every door, [F#m] it don't matter what you got, [E] ask her [A] even more.
