    C                   F          
You try so hard to be a mystery, a 
C                     G
lady never shows her cards.
    C                    F        
The words you speak say you love 
      C                         G
me, but the tone of your voice says 
it's hard.
            Am                
Love me to pieces, you left me 
   F
speechless.
             Am                    
I'm fighting fair, but baby I know 
     G
your weakness

               F               C  
So let's go to Memphis on the 
           G
river at that special place we know.
 F                  C             
You can wear your emerald dress 
      G
that makes your red hair glow.
             F                
We'll drink whiskey mixed with 
   C                         G
moonlight like the water's steady 
flow.
 F                           C
Memphis on the river, that's where I
 wanna go

 C                           F    
I don't pretend to have the 
       C                       G
answers, as if the questions weren't
 enough.
