Cher: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMiRbJrI5ow [G] Put on my [D] blue suede shoes, and I [G] boarded the [D] plane [Bm] Touched [G] down in the land of the Delta Blues In the middle of the [A] pouring [D] rain [Bm]

[G] W.C. Handy, [Bm] [G] won't you look down on [Bm] me? [G] Yeah, I got a first class ticket, [Bm] [G] but I'm as blue as a girl can [D] be

Then I'm walking in [G] Memphis [A] [D] I was [Bm] walking with my [G] feet ten feet [D] off of [Bm] Beale Walking in [G] Memphis, [A] [D] but [Em] do I really feel the [D] way I feel?

Saw the [G] ghost of [D] Elvis on Union Avenue [Bm] Followed him [D] up to the [G] gates of [D] Graceland [D] I watched him walk right through

Now [G] security, they did not see [D] him They just [G] hovered 'round his [D] tomb [Bm] There's a [G] pretty little [A] thing waiting [D] for the [Bm] King [G] Down [NC] in the Jungle Room

[D] When I was walking in [G] Memphis [A] [D] I was [Bm] walking with my [G] feet ten feet [D] off of [Bm] Beale [Bm] Walking in [G] Memphis, [A] [D] but [Em] do I really feel the way I [D] feel?

Chorus: [D] Walking in [G] Memphis, ([A] Walking in [D] Memphis) I was [Bm] walking with my [G] feet ten feet [G] off of [Bm] Beale Walking in [G] Memphis, ([A] Walking in [D] Memphis) But [Em] do I really feel the [D] way I feel?

[D] They got [Bm] catfish on the [D] table, they got [Bm] gospel in the [D] air [D] Reverend [F#m] Green be glad to [G] see you when you [NC] haven't got a prayer Boy, you've got a prayer in [G] Memphis [A] [D] [G] [A] [D]

[G] Now [D] Gabriel plays piano every [G] Friday at the Hollywood [Bm] And they [G] brought me down to [D] see him And they [G] asked me [A] if I [D] would [Bm] [G]

[A] Do a little number? [Bm] And I sang with [A] all my [Bm] might He said, "[G] Tell me, are [A] you a Christian, [Bm] child?" And I said, "[NC] Man, I am tonight"

Chorus x 2

[A] Put on my [D] blue suede [Bm] shoes [G]….…[A]…….[D]

Probably easier than Marc Cohn version – esp with barre chords
