Elvis

E9
A deep thick plush blue carpet at my feet

A peacock stained glass window staring back at me
  D9                                                E9
A nine foot crushed white velvet sofa in the hallway

          E9
There's a TV in the kitchen

She's cooking in her panties

Flippin' them little sandwiches likes she's flippin' her hair
D9                                      E9
Sure is nice to have someone to hold me

Chorus:
           G
I'm the king of kings you see
A7
Everything you need
           E9
Baby, I'm Elvis

baby, baby, I'm Elvis

baby, baby, I'm Elvis

            (Ray Benson)

       E9
I got a hundred golden records in this one room

I got fifty golden knobs upon my doors
      D9                                                        E9
I got one black twenty-five foot stretch Cadillac to drive you home

To drive you home

E9
Downstairs there's a room in the basement

It's mostly made of yellow and black
D9
Some folks call it the jungle
                                  E9
I just think it's a nice place to relax

Chorus:
        G
I'm the king of kings you see
A7
Everything you need
          E9
Baby, I'm Elvis

baby, baby, I'm Elvis

baby, baby, I'm Elvis

E9
Once a year they all come to see me

I watch them throwing flowers at my toes
          D9
There's a line that stretches down the driveway
                               E9
Past my plane, ends at the gift shop

Chorus:
        G
I'm the king of kings you see
A7
Everything you need
          E9
Baby, I'm Elvis
         G
I'm the king of kings you see
A7
Everything you need
           E9
Baby, I'm Elvis

baby, baby, I'm Elvis

baby, baby, I'm Elvis

G    A7    E9 x2
