Last night I turned radio on for the
 midnight news
Suddenly I thought I died of a 
broken heart
When I heard the announcer say

"Ladies and gentlemen, the King is 
dead
Elvis Presley just died in a 
hospital in Memphis, Tennessee
Forty-Two years on this planet, but 
he'll be here forever"

C                       F
 I remember Elvis Presley
G7                              C
 Lord, how I love to hear him sing!
A7                           Dm
 So I'll adore him just forever

G7                           C G7
 For he's the one and only King

C                    F
 I remember Elvis Presley

G7                            C
 And he won't ever set me free

A7                              Dm
 Like he was singing "Now Or 
 G7
Never"

                        C
 He's just a golden memory

   F          C
 (Uh, Uh, Uh)
                              Dm

 Good luck charm is not forever

G7                              C
 Good luck songs we need 'em ever

 'Cause in my mind you haven't gone

             C                  
Are you lonesome tonight? Do you 
   Dm
miss him tonight?

            F             G7   
Tell me, dear,  are you lonesome

 My dear friend, I won't forget you

G7                             C
 When I need you, I can hear you

 King, though I don't know where or 
  D7

                                 G7
 There'll be a day we'll meet again

 C       Em  Am         Dm  A7   Dm
 Wise man say only fools rush in

        F E7  Am    Dm        C 
 But I can't help falling in 
  G7  C
love again

( falado: C F G7 C A7 Dm G7 C G7)

 Elvis Presley, I wanna thank you
 For all the happiness you gave so 
many people
 All over the world during many, 
many years
 I remember the DJ was playing 
"Jailhouse rock"
 When I had my first date with a 
beautiful girl
 And since that evening you've been 
my friend, Elvis
