D Em C
I hit the hills in the morning
D Em C
Dark and pretty like you
D Em C
Washed my car when I got there
F C Em
And tried to wash away you too
F C D
And tried to wash away you too
Chorus:
G F C
Whoa-oa-oh Memphis
G F C
Just a memory of a town
G F C
Whoa-oa-oh Memphis
Am
Nothing there now
Followed my car to Zilker Park
All I had the strength to do
I sat alone and cried in the dark
Wishing I had never been through
Wishing I had never been through
Chorus
Somewhere between then and now
Held by a stone in fate
There’s a small smile built for you
Holding there in wait
Holding there in wait
Chorus
