Intro 1

Verse 1
Am 
Everywhere the wind blows,
I fly to Memphis
G 
I am caught on and I'm gone,
F 
sure as oil is
Before the morning,
G 
Am 
I will fly to Memphis
I touch the spirit, when I'm near it
G 
I put a hand, right on the cross
F 
When I close my eyes,
I just see the sunrise
G 
Am 
So I fly to Memphis
F 
And there is no why
C 
G 
Why do I run when I am lost?
F 
And it is not where
C 
North or South, I do not care
G 
F 
I go there when I hear the call
G 
Am 
Nights fall, I fly to Memphis
When I'm weak and weary
When my time has come
G 
When I'm going, going, gone
F 
When there's no pretending
G 
This isn't ending
Am 
I will fly to Memphis
Like an evil wolf
A hoof cloven
G 
In a broken leaf I  can see deep
F 
It's frozen at the root, sir
G 
Just as a crow flies
Am 
So do I to Memphis
F 
And there is no why,
C 
G 
why do I run when I am lost?
F 
And it is not aware,
C 
nor is it sound that do not care
G 
F 
We go there, when I hear the calling
G 
Nights falling, I fly to Memphis
Am 
F 
G 
Am 
When I'm down in Georgia,
California
G 
When I'm down and out,
with that doubt
F 
A lift from my own weight,
Em 
Am 
with God's beat I fly
F 
And there is no why,
C 
G 
why do I run when I am lost?
F 
And it is not where,
C 
north or south, I do not care
G 
F 
I go there, when I hear the calling
G 
When night's falling,
Am 
I fly to Memphis
C 
F 
G 
Treasures burn, before the morning
Am 
I will fly to Memphis
F 
G 
It's not a vision, it's a premonition
Am 
I will fly to Mem phis you
