[Intro]
D C#m G E (4x)
[Verse 1]
EI was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he E7died
EI was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he E7died
EJust a country boy that combed his hair
He Aput on a shirt his mother made and Ewent on the air
And he C#mshook it like a chorus Egirl
And he C#mshook it like a Harlem EQueen
He C#mshook it like a midnight Erambler, baby
Like you Anever seen, like you never Eseen, never E7seen
[Instrumental]
D C#m G E (2x)
[Verse 2]
EI was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he E7died
EI was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he E7died
EHow he took it all out of black and white
AGrabbed his wand in the other hand and he Eheld on tight
And he C#mshook it like a hurriEcane
He C#mshook it like to make it Ebreak
And he C#mshook it like a holy Eroller, baby
With his Asoul at stake, with his soul at Estake, soul at E7stake
[Instrumental]
D C#m G E (2x)
[Verse 3]
EI was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he E7died
EI was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he E7died
EHe was all alone in a long decline
AThinking how happy John Henry was that he Efell down and died
When he C#mshook it and it rang like Esilver
He C#mshook it and it shine like Egold
He C#mshook it and he beat that Esteam drill, baby
And he Ablessed my soul, what's wrong with with me
And Amentioned like a man on a fuzzy dream, a fuzzy Edream, fuzzy E7dream
[Instrumental]
D C#m G E (2x)
[Outro]
And he C#mshook it and it rang like Esilver
And he C#mshook it and it shined like Egold
He C#mshook it and he beat that Esteam drill, baby
And he Ablessed my soul, yes he blessed my Esoul, blessed my E7soul
D C#m G E (4x)
