[Verse 1]
G                              
Well I guess you thought I might 
                D
have been in exile
F                              
The son you last saw leaving the 
   Am
station
C                                 
But tomorrow I'll be coming home 
   G
to Memphis
D                                 
And will you look your namesake in
  C
 the eye?
G
I wonder


[Verse 2]
G                                 
Is there something about my hair 
             D
you don't remember?
F                          
Or have I changed beyond all 
       Am
recognition?
C                                 
Well look at what the wind blew 
   G
into Memphis
D                                 
Now will you look your namesake in
  C
 the eye?
G
This time around

[Chorus]
Am        F         C         G
Who can forget a sinner like me?
Am        F         C    
He who will not face his own 
     G
reflection
Am                  F
Unfold your praying hands old man
C                G
Awake from your sleep
Am                    F    
Behold the dead are raised in 
      C       G
resurrection

[Verse 3]
G                                 
Well I guess you might have 
         D
thought I'd be too far gone by now
F                                 
But here I am as close as your own 
Am
shadow
C                                 
The truth is that I've always 
   G
stood beside you
Am
And I always will


[Verse 4]
G                             
Well somebody said today's your 
      D
celebration
F                              
And who would I be not to wear a 
   Am
smile
C                                 
So here's to every road that leads
   G
 to Memphis
D                                 
Now will you look your namesake in
     C
 the eye?
D                                 
Oh, will you look your namesake in
     C
 the eye?
D                                 
Will you look your namesake in the
     C
 eye?
G
I wonder

[Chorus]
Am        F         C         G
Who can forget a sinner like me?
Am               F         
He who will not face his own 
C         G
reflection
Am                  F
Unfold your praying hands old man
C                G
Awake from your sleep
Am                    F    
Behold the dead are raised in 
      C       G
resurrection
