Memphis, Tennessee Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A]
[D][A]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Long [A]distance information,
give me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party trying
to get in touch with me
She [D]could not leave her number
But I know who placed the call
'Cause my [A]uncle took the message

[Interlude 1]
And he wrote it on the wall
[A][D]

[Verse 2]
[A]Help me, information,
get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd
phone me here
From Memphis, Tennessee
Her [D]home is on the south side,
high up on a ridge
[A]Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge
[D]

[Interlude 2]

[A][D]
[A][D][A]
[D][A][D][A][D]

[Verse 3]
[A]Help me, information,
more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
[D]We were pulled apart because
her mom did not agree
And [A]tore apart our happy home in Memphis,
[D]Tennessee

[Interlude 3]
[D]

[Verse 4]
[A]Last time I saw Marie,
she was waving me goodbye
With hurry- home drops on her cheek
That trickled from her eye
[D]Marie is only six years old,
information, please
[A]Try to put me through to her in Memphis,

[Outro 1]
