Verse 1
I seen the (D major) bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel (A major)
And it was there beneath
the streetlamp
Where I met a southern belle (D major)
Well she (G major) took me to the river (D major)
Where she cast her (A major) spell
And it was 'neath that
Memphis moonlight
She sang this song (D major) so well

Or the money I put down (A major)
On the white picket fence
and boardwalk
At the house on the edge (G major) of town

The strain of her refrain (A major)
And the nights we spent together
And the way she called (G major) my name (D major)

And (G major) as he handed (D major) me a drink
He began to hum a song (A major)
And all the boys there at the bar
Began to sing (G major) along (D major)
