D5    G5

[Verse 1]
     D5
Long distance information, give me 
Memphis Tennessee
D5
Help me find the party trying to get
 in touch with me
G5
She could not leave her number, but 
I know who placed the call
          D5                       
'Cause my uncle took the message 
                     G5
and he wrote it on the wall

[Verse 2]
D5
Help me, information, get in touch 
with my Marie
D5
She's the only one who'd phone me 
here from Memphis Tennessee

    G5
Her home is on the south side, high 
up on a ridge
D5                        
Just a half a mile from the 
              G5
Mississippi Bridge

[Verse 3]
D5
Help me, information, more than that
 I cannot add
D5
Only that I miss her and all the fun
 we had
    G5
But we were pulled apart because her
 mom did not agree
    D5                          
And tore apart our happy home in 
               G5
Memphis Tennessee

[Verse 4]
D5
Last time I saw Marie she's waving 
me good-bye
D5
With hurry-home drops on her cheek 
that trickled from her eye
G5
Marie is only six years old, and 
information please
D5                            
Try to put me through to her in 
                D5
