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

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

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

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