Verse 1
(G major) (D major) We're (G major) going to take (F sharp major) you down
(G major) to (Edim) old Memphis town
to (G major) let you (A flat major) hear old Memphis blues. (C sharp major) (D major) (G major)
(B major)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (B major) (G major) (F sharp major)
(C sharp major) (D major) (G major)
(F sharp major) They've (G major) got a fiddler (F sharp major) there
That (G major) always slickens his hair
Oh, (F sharp major) Lordy, (G major) how he pulls on his bow
An (A major) d (B major) when you hear that tune
Listen (A major) (F sharp major) to the (B major) trombone's (G major) croon (F sharp major)
They (C sharp major) moan just (D major) like (G major) a (F sharp major) sinner
on Re (B major) vival Day (G major)
(F sharp major) Revival day, that (G major) melancholy (F sharp major) strain
That (G major) ever haunting refrain
(F sharp major) Is like (G major) a darky (F sharp major) moan in (C sharp major) a song
(G major) Here (B major) comes the very part
That wraps a (F sharp major) spell (B major) around my heart
Here's the very part
That wraps a (F sharp major) spell (B major) around my (G major) heart
It sets (A major) me wild
To (F sharp minor) hear that (F sharp major) lovely (B major) tune again,
(F sharp major) those (B major) Memphis (G major) blues. (C sharp major)
(D major) Hon (F sharp minor) ey, (D major) I've been (F sharp minor) down,
down to Memphis town,
Where the (C sharp major) people smile on you
(F sharp minor) all the while.
Hospitality, they were good to me,
(F sharp major) Although I (C sharp major) couldn't spend a dime,
I had the grandest (F sharp minor) time. (G major) (A major) (C sharp major) (D major) (A major)
(G major) I went out a (F sharp major) -dancing
(A major) with a Tennessee (G major) deer
A fellow there named Handy
(A major) had a band you should hear
And (C sharp major) while they gently swayed,
all those darkies how they
(A major) played (G major) in real har (B major) mony
(G major) Fid (B flat major) dler (B flat major) there just slittens his hair
Oh, Lordy, how he pulls on his bow
when you (D major) hear that tune, listen. (A major)
Those (A major) trombones moan just like
a sinner on revival day.
That melancholy (A major) strain
with its haunting refrain
seems to be like a darky song.
Here it comes.
It wraps a spell around my heart.
It sets me wild.
Again, (A major) those Memphis,
(A major) those (B flat major) Memphis blues.
Memphis Blues
