Put on my blue suede shoes and I boarded the plane,
F G C Am
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues,
F G C Am
In the middle of the pouring rain,
F G C Am F G C Am
W.C. Handy, won't you look down over me,
F G C Am
Yeah, I got a first class ticket,
F G C
But I'm as blue as a boy can be,
(chorus)
Am F G - C
Then I'm walking in Memphis,
Am F G C
I was walking with my feet ten feet off Beale,
Am F G - C
Walking in Memphis,
Am F G Gsus/ G - C
But do I really feel the way I feel,
(verse 2)
F G C Am F G C - Am
Saw the ghost of Elvis, on Union avenue,
F G C Am
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland,
F G C Am
Then I watched him walk right through,
F G C Am
Now, security they did not see him,
F G C Am
They just hovered around his tomb,
F G C Am
But there's a pretty little thing waiting for the King,
F G C
Down in the jungle room,
(chorus)
Then I'm walking in Memphis,
I was walking with my feet ten feet off Beale,
Walking in Memphis,
But do I really feel the way I feel,

Now, Muriel plays piano, every Friday at the Hollywood,
F G C Am
And they brought me down to see her,
F G C Am
And they asked me if I would,
F G C Am
Do a little number,
F G C Am
And I sang with all my might,
F G C Am
She said Tell me, are you a Christian, child,
F G C
And I said Ma'am, I am tonight,

Walking in Memphis,
But do I really feel the way I feel,
