Verse:
A
If I could talk to Elvis
E
I hope he'd have all day
A
I'd ask him all about Memphis
E
And that Vegas stage
F#m E Asus4 A
How'd he feel when he bought his mom with that pink Cadillac
E
Coming from the barefoot start of the Mississippi shack?
A Asus4 A
I'd make sure he knows at Graceland
E A
That people visit everyday
Chorus:
D A
How is it that I miss somebody that I've never met?
E7 A
The years go by but none of us forget
D A
He felt like a friend to me and that's just what I'd tell him

He changed a generation with one swing of his hips

We'd dreamed a little big 'cause of what he had to give

But I wish he would've stayed
