C#m E B F#m (x2)
C#m E B F#m
Elvis in a ring of fire
C#m E B F#m
hips swingin' feet swimmin' in an old pair of blue suede shoes
C#m E B F#m
eyes wide like dodos, hair black as coal
A E
he's walking the streets of Memphis
B A E
pickin' up pennies found on their heads

C#m E B F#m
he's dancin' like he's on TV
C#m E B F#m
I never realized but he's dancin' for me
C#m E B F#m
he's got a lot of fans out there, but nobody cares
A E
I just wanna hear him sing
B A E
didn't he know he was the only king
C#m E B F#m (x3)
A E
C#m E B F#m
he's actin' like it's his last chance
C#m E B F#m
smoke risin' from his heels every time that he'd dance
C#m E B F#m
and blue rhinestones on his legs, flowers on his grave
A E
I wonder what he'd say
B A E
if he knew people felt like him today
C#m E B F#m (x3)
A E
C#m E B F#m
Elvis in a ring of fire
C#m E B F#m
hips swingin' feet swimmin' in an old pair of blue suede shoes
