(Continue with base pattern on C and G chords)
GHelp me, in-for-ma-tion, get in touch with my Ma-rie
She's Gthe only one who'd phone me here from Mem-phis Ten-nes-see

Just a haG7lf a mile----- from the Mis-sis-sip-pi Bridge C

[Verse 3]
GHelp me, in-for-mation, more than that I cannot add

And tore G7apart our happy home in Mem-phis Ten-neCs-see

GLast time I saw Ma-rie she's waving me good-bye
GWith hurry home drops on her cheek that trick-led from her eye
Ma-rCie is only six years old, in-for-ma-tion please
And try tG7o put me through to her in Mem-phis TenC-nes-see
