Home of the blues is where I live
Trapped inside these lonely walls that won't forgive
Surrounded by a memory
Your goodbye haunts me like a Beale street melody
But I'd do anything, I'd get down on my knees
If my tears would set this ghost inside me free
I'm gonna cry like [F]Memρhis
I'm goin' three times under
I'm gonna drown my [A]sorrows
In tears that ɾoll like [F]thunder
Til I can find the stɾength
So I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like [F]Memρhis
When they heard the king was [Am7]gone
Love me tender
cuts through the dark
Comin' from an open window of a passin' car
And in that moment I believe
I can almost feel your body here next to [C7]me
But one heart beating
Slowly brings me back around
I know you're gone and [Bm]I know I'm breakin' down
When I break down
I'm gonna cry like [F]Memρhis
I'm goin' three times under
Gonna drown my [A]sorrows
In tears that ɾoll like [F]thunder
Til I can find the stɾength
So I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like [F]Memρhis
When they heard the king was [Am7]gone
Guitar solo
Til I can find the stɾength
So I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like [F]Memρhis
When they heard the king was [Am7]gone
ohhhhhh
When they heard the king was [Am7]gone
Goodbye
