[INTRO]
[D] [C#m] [G] [E] (4x)

[VERSE 1]
[E]I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he [E7]died
[E]I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he [E7]died
[E]Just a country boy that combed his hair
He [A]put on a shirt his mother made and [E]went on the air
And he [C#m]shook it like a chorus [E]girl
And he [C#m]shook it like a Harlem [E]Queen
He [C#m]shook it like a midnight [E]rambler, baby
Like you [A]never seen, like you never [E]seen, never [E7]seen

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[D] [C#m] [G] [E] (2x)

[VERSE 2]
[E]I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he [E7]died
[E]I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he [E7]died
[E]How he took it all out of black and white
[A]Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he [E]held on tight
And he [C#m]shook it like a hurri[E]cane
He [C#m]shook it like to make it [E]break
And he [C#m]shook it like a holy [E]roller, baby
With his [A]soul at stake, with his soul at [E]stake, soul at [E7]stake

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[D] [C#m] [G] [E] (2x)

[VERSE 3]
[E]I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he [E7]died
[E]I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he [E7]died
[E]He was all alone in a long decline
[A]Thinking how happy John Henry was that he [E]fell down and died
When he [C#m]shook it and it rang like [E]silver
He [C#m]shook it and it shine like [E]gold
He [C#m]shook it and he beat that [E]steam drill, baby
And he [A]blessed my soul, what's wrong with with me
And [A]mentioned like a man on a fuzzy dream, a fuzzy [E]dream, fuzzy [E7]dream

[OUTRO]
And he [C#m]shook it and it rang like [E]silver
And he [C#m]shook it and it shined like [E]gold
He [C#m]shook it and he beat that [E]steam drill, baby
And he [A]blessed my soul, yes he blessed my [E]soul, blessed my [E7]soul
