[Verse 1]
DOh she dressed in the Gdark and she whispered Damen
She was Gpretty in C/Epink like a Dyoung girl Emagain
TDwenty years Gmarried and she never thought Dtwice
She Gsneeked out theC/E door and walked Dinto the Gnight
[Verse 2]
DAnd silver wings carried her C/Eover the Gsea
From the Dwest coast of Ireland toC/E West TenneDssee
To be with her Gsweetheart, she left every Dthing
She came from GGalway to C/EGraceland to Dbe with theEm king
[Verse 3]
DShe sang Love me Gtender that's the song she liked Dbest
She had GElvis I C/ELove You DTattooed on herEm breast
DWhen they landed inG Memphis, her heart beat so Dfast
She'd Gdreamed for so C/Elong, now she'd Dsee him at Glast
[Verse 4]
She wasD down by his gravesidC/Ee day afterG day
Come Dclosing time they would C/Epull her Daway
And To be with her Gsweetheart, oh she'd left every Dthing
From GGalway to C/EGraceland to Dbe with the Emking
[Verse 5]
Ah DThey came in their Gthousands from the whole human Drace
To pGay their rC/Eespects at his Dlast resting Emplace
DBut blindly she Gknelt there and she told him her Ddreams
She Gthought that he C/Eanswered or Dthat's how it Gseemed
[Verse 6]
Then they Ddragged her away it was C/Ehandcuffs this Gtime
She said Dmy dear man, "Are you C/Eout of your Dmind?"
Don’t you see that we're Gmarried? See, I'm wearing his Dring
I've come from GGalway to C/EGraceland to Dbe with the Emking
DI've come from GGalway to C/EGraceland to Dbe with the Gking
