Capo 1 (Recorded In F#)
Intro: C-F-Bb-C-Dm-Bb-C-Dm
 
           F                                           Bb
A hundred miles out of Little Rock, windshield full of rain
  C        F                      C
I-40 eastbound   drivin while I pray, 
Dm                     F                                   Bb
  Shes asleep in the backseat, Holdin tight to her teddy bear,
                                      C
Shes got her daddys smile and her mommas hair
     Gm      F              Am
But one word   knocked our lives off track
     Gm        F   C
Just one word,    keeps us comin back


Chorus:
               Bb      C                       F
Across the Mississippi,   A mile or two from Beale Street
                   Bb       C                            Dm
Not too far from Graceland,   Where the king of rock and roll sleeps
                 Bb             C              F            Dm 
To a place for children, Where God sends his mercy rainin down
C                 Bb       C                 F 
In the heart of Memphis, Where angels hang around Instrumental: Bb-C-Dm-Bb-C-Dm Dm F Bb All the deals Ive made with God, The conversations that weve had C Dm Bb C Tryin to accept things I could not understand Dm F Bb I wanna walk her down the aisle, While those church bells ring, C See her get the chance. To live all her dreams, Gm F A But one word knocked our lives off track Gm F C Just one word keeps us comin back Chorus Bb C F Across the Mississippi, A mile or two from Beale Street Bb C Dm Not too far from Graceland, Where the king of rock and roll sleeps Bb C F Dm To a place for children, Where God sends his mercy rainin down C Bb C F In the heart of Memphis, Where angels hang around Dm C Bb So sleep tight baby while these four wheels roll Dm C Bb C Cause just beyond the clouds theres a ray of hope Bb C F Dm To a place for children, Where God sends his mercy rainin down C Bb C F In the heart of Memphis
