3/4 time

Capo:3 Key of F



|D |D |D |D |Bm |G |G |G |G  |



The (Bm)sun she went (Daug)down like a (D)curtain

Lord (Bm)Memphis looks (Daug)bigger at (D)night

All the (G)tattooed boys (A)in their (Bm)uniforms (A)

They stepped (G)in and (A)out of the light (G)



She (Bm)bought me good (Daug)whiskey in (D)Memphis

She bought (Bm)supper and she (Daug)paid for the (D)room

And as (G)best as (A)I can remember (Bm) (A)

She paid (G)dearly for (A)loving me (G)too



She said (C)hey don't I (G)know you now (D)ain't you the one

The (C)one with the guitar (G)boys and (D)all them sad songs

About (C)men in the  rain

And did you ever (G)miss a plane to (D)Memphis



|D |D |D |D |Bm |G |G |G |G  |



We (Bm)laughed at the (Daug)strangers we were (D)in the bed

The two (Bm)cigarettes that (Daug)lit up the (D)room

Just like (G)two backseat (A)lovers can't (Bm)wait to get (A)started

Knowing (G)everything's (A)over too soon (G)



Now (Bm)Memphis ain't (Daug)bad in the (D)morning

Good (Bm)coffee, hell, it's (Daug)just hard to (D)find

But (G)let me suggest (A)that you never (Bm)leave  (A)Memphis

With (G)anything (A)on your (G)mind



She said (C)hey don't I (G)know you now (D)ain't you the one

The (C)one with the guitar (G)boys and (D)all them sad songs

About (C)men in the  rain

And did you ever (G)miss a plane to (D)Memphis

She said (C)hey don't I (G)know you now (D)ain't you the one

The (C)one with the guitar (G)boys and (D)all them sad songs

About (C)men in the  rain

And did you ever (G)miss a plane to (D)Memphis
