Walking in Memphis piano leadsheet with chords
Put on my blue suede shoes and I boarded the plane.
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues in the middle of the pouring rain.
W. bleu C.
Handy, won't you look down over me?
Yeah, I've got a firstclass ticket but I'm as blue as a boy can be.
Then I'm walking in Memphis.
Was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale.
Walking in Memphis,
but do I really feel the way I feel?
Saw the ghost of Elvis
on Union Avenue,
followed him up to the gates of Graceland,
then I watched him walk right through.
Now security, they did not see him;
they just hovered 'round his tomb,
but there's a pretty little thing waiting for the King down in the Jungle Room.
When I was walking in Memphis,
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale.
Walking in Memphis,
but do I really feel the way I feel?
They've got catfish on the table;
they've got gospel in the air,
and Reverend Green be glad to see you when you haven't got
a prayer,
but boy, you've got a prayer in Memphis.
Now Muriel plays piano
ev'ry Friday at the Hollywood,
and they brought me down
to see her
and they asked me if I would,
well, do a little number,
and I sang with all my might.
She said, "Tell me, are you a Christian,
child?" and I said, "Ma'am, I am tonight."
Walking in Memphis.
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale.
Walking in Memphis,
but do I really feel the way I feel?
Walking in Memphis.
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale.
Walking in Memphis,
but do I really feel the way I feel?
Walking in Memfeel the way I feel?
Put on my blue suede shoes and I boarded the plane.
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
in the middle of the pouring rain.
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
in the middle of the pouring rain.
