🎶 Morning Elvis

When they [Db]dressed me and they [Cb]put me on a plane to [A#]Memphis, well
I [Db]never got to see [Cb] [A#]Elvis
I just [Db]sweated it out in a [Cb]hotel room
But I [A#]think the king woulda understood
Why I [Db]never made [Cb]it to [A#]Graceland
The bathroom [Db]tiles were [Cb]cool against my [A#]hand
I pressed my [Db]forehead to the [Cb]floor and [A#]prayed for a trapdoor
I've [Db]been here many [Cb]times before
But [A#]I've never made it to [Db] [Cb] [A#]Graceland

And if I make it to the [Db] [Cb] [A#]mornin'
I shoulda come with a [Db] [Cb] [A#]warnin'
And if I make it to the [Db]stage
I'll [Cb]show you what it [A#]means
To be [Db] [Cb] [A#]saved

Well, pick me [Db]up in New [Cb]Orleans
Pinned [A#]in a bathroom stall
Pick me [Db]up above my [Cb]body
Press my [A#]corpse against the wall
I told the [Db]band to leave without me
[Cb]I'll [A#]get the next flight
And I'll [Db]see you all with [Cb]Elvis
If I [A#]don't survive the night

If I make it to the [Db] [Cb] [A#]mornin'
I shoulda come with a [Db] [Cb] [A#]warnin'
And if I make it to the [Db]stage
I'll [Cb]show you what it [A#]means
To be [Db] [Cb] [A#]saved

And after [Bb]every tour, I swear I'll [Db]quit
It's [Cb]over, boys, now this is [A#]it
[Bb]But the call, it always comes
And the [Db]songs, like [Cb]children, [A#]beggin' to be [Bb]born
But, oh, I guess I [Db]got my [Cb]wish
But [A#]anything, [Db]anything, [Cb]anything but [A#]this

If I make it to the [Db] [Cb] [A#]mornin'
I shoulda come with a [Db] [Cb] [A#]warnin'
And if I make it to the [Db]stage
I'll [Cb]show you what it [A#]means
To be [Db] [Cb] [A#]saved
Oh, you know I'm still [Db] [Cb] [A#]afraid
I'm still crazy and I'm still [Db] [Cb] [A#]scared
But if I [Db]make it to the [Cb]stage
I'll [A#]show you what it means
To be [Db] [Cb] [A#]spared

To be [Db] [Cb] [A#]spared
To be [Db] [Cb] [A#]spared
To be [Db] [Cb] [A#]spared
To be [Db]spared⠀
