[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
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
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
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
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
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
[Instrumental]

[Outro]
C#m E
And he shook it and it rang like silver
C#m E
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
