Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F][C][G][F][C]

[Verse 1]
[F]Meanwhile
down [Dm]on Bi[C]el Street
[F]Drinking in a Biel Street [C]bar
There's a fog rollin' off the Missis[G]sippi
Has [F]anybody seen [C]Arkansas?

[Verse 2]
And the [F]deckhands from the toll [C]boats
Come [F]ashore wearin' Mexican [C]shoes
They headed strait [G]for Graceland
It was [F]the first thing they wanted to [C]do

[Verse 3]
[G]Cinco de Mayo in [C]Memphis
[G]Marchetti singin' the [C]blues[Am]
[G]Soul sisters hugging Senorita[C]s
[G]All sportin' Blue suede shoes

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C]
[G][C][G][F][C][Am][G][F][C][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[F]Pork pie hats and sombrer[C]os
[F]Hangin' on a downtown [C]street
Swingin' pool cues [G]at [Dm]Pinatas
Don't that river smell [C]sweet?

[Verse 5]
And they [F]all come to get
'em some Mem[C]phis
A [F]little somethin' for their [C]souls
'Lone riders land up with lim[G]ousines
Hey, they [F]all came to rock and [C]roll

[Verse 6]
[G]Cinco de Mayo [Dm]in M[C]emphis
[G]Marchetti singin' the [C]blues[Am][G]
Southern belles and Senor[C]itas
[G]All sportin' Blue suede [C]shoes[G]

[Verse 7]
[G]Cinco de Mayo in [C]Memphis
[G]Marchetti singin' the [C]blues[Am]
[G]Soul sisters hugging Senor[C]itas
[G]All sportin' Blue suede

[Outro 1]
