verse 1 
E 
I was thinking that night about Elvis 
                              E7 
Day that he died, day that he died 
E 
I was thinking that night about Elvis 
                              E7 
Day that he died, day that he died 
E 
Just a country boy that combed his hair 
   A                                  E 
He put on a shirt his mother made and went on the air 
       C#m                    E 
And he shook it like a Chorus girl 
       C#m                    E 
And he shook it like a Harlem Queen 
   C#m                      E 
He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby 
         A                          E           E7 
Like you never seen, like you never seen, never seen

Day that he died, day that he died 
E                                   
How he took it all out of black and white 
A                                         E 
Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight 
       C#m                  E 
And he shook it like a hurricane 
   C#m                      E 
He shook it like to make it break 
       C#m                  E 
And he shook it like a holy roller, baby 
         A                               E              E7 
With his soul at stake, with his soul at stake, soul at stake

He was all alone in a long decline 
A                                         E 
Thinking how happy John Henry was that he fell down and died 
        C#m                       E 
When he shook it and it rang like silver 
   C#m                        E 
He shook it and it shine like gold 
   C#m                       E 
He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby 
       A 
And he blessed my soul, were you long with me 
    A                                              E            E7 
And mentioned like a man on a fuzzy dream, a fuzzy dream, fuzzy dream
