Verse 1:
[F] Put [G] on my [C] blue suede [Am] shoes and I [F] Board[G]ed the plane [C] [Am]

In the [F] middle of the [G] pouring [C] rain [Am]
[F] Double [G] U. C. [C] Handy [Am] Won't you [F] look down [G] over [C] me [Am]

[F] I saw the [G] ghost of [C] Elvis [Am] [F] On [G] U-u-union Ave[C]nue [Am] 
Followed him [F] up to the [G] gates of [C] Graceland [Am]
Then I [F] watched him [G] walk right [C] through [Am]
Now, se[F]curity they [G] did not [C] see him [Am]
They just [F] hovered [G] round his [C] tomb [Am]
But there's a [F] pretty little [G] thing... [C] waiting for the [Am] King
[F*] Down in the jungle room

Verse 3 (Slow – single strums):
Now, they've got [Csus4*] catfish on the [C*] table [Csus4*] [C*] 
They've got [Csus4*] gospel in the [C*] air [Csus4*] [C*]
And Reverend [E7*] Green... will be gla-a-ad to [F*] see you
When you (F#m*) haven't got a [G7*] prayer [C*]
But boy you got a prayer in
[normal strumming] [F] Memphis [G] [C] [Am] [F] [G] [C] [Am]

Now [F] Muriel [G] plays pi[C]ano, [Am] Every [F] Friday at the [G] Holly[C]wood [Am]

And they [F] asked me [G] if I [C] would [Am] [F] Do a [G] little [C] number [Am]
And I [F] sang with [G] all my [C] might [Am]
She said, [F] "Tell me are [G] you a [C] Christian, [Am] child?" 
And I said [F*] "Ma'am, I am tonight!"

[F] Put [G] on my [C] blue suede [Am] shoes and I [F] Board[G]ed the plane [C] [Am]

In the [F] middle of the [G] pouring [C] rain [Am]
Touched [F] down in the [G] land of the [C] Delta [Am] blues
In the [F] middle of the [G] pouring [C*] rain
