[Bm] [Em]
[E]
I [B] found this information in Memphis, Tennessee.
She helped me find a party and tried to get in touch with me.
[E] She could not leave a number, but I know her place to call.
Cause my uncle [B] took the message and he wrote it [E] on the wall.
[B] Helping me get information, get in touch with my Marie.
She's the only one who calls me from Memphis, Tennessee.
[E] There on this old south side, high up on the river.
Just [B] a half a mile from the [E] Mississippi River.

[B] Last time I saw Marie, she was waiting me by.
With her red home drive saw that she got trickled from her eye.
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree.
And tore [B] apart our happy home in Memphis, [E] Tennessee.
[B] Helping me get information, more than that I cannot have.
All the love that I miss her and all the fun we had.
[E] Marie is only six years old, information please.
Try to [B] put me through the hurry, I'm Memphis, [E] Tennessee.
[F] [N]
