(Chorus)
A E
Well, I'm headed west out to Memphis,
E A
I'm cousin' down old "Music Highway" I-40.
A E
Yeah, I'm headed west out to Memphis,
E A
I'm leaving Nashville for Memphis, Tennessee.
I came out here when I was fourteen,
Searching for my future, chasing my dreams.
But I missed that old Mississippi Delta,
And the girl I left behind she my young Memphis queen.
(Repeat Chorus)
I got this guitar when I was real young,
Momma said "Boy, play with soul, sing from your heart,"
I realized why Elvis loved Graceland,
And why his blue suede shoes never roamed too far.
(Repeat Chorus)
