Guitar chords with lyrics

G+G                         A minorAm              C majorC                 G+G
From the Sun years of the Fifties and the birth of rock and roll

D7D7                                  G+G
Millions screamed to see him do his thing

                  A minorAm      C majorC              G+G
Elvis touched the life of every ear that heard him

                           D7D7             G+G
And they couldn't help but listen when he sang

       C majorC                             G+G
It's a long way from Memphis to that mansion in the sky

       D7D7                           G+G
But he kept his faith in Jesus all along

       C majorC                              G+G             C majorC
It's a long way from Graceland across Jordan to the Promised Land

    G+G             D7D7               G+G
But Jesus finally came to lead him home


                         A minorAm            C majorC                G+G
From the days of Love Me Tender to his momma's last farewell

D7D7                                  G+G
Some say he knew how long he had to stay

                      A minorAm              C majorC                G+G
His life was two days longer than the one who gave him life

                       D7D7            G+G
