Memphis Pearl chords by Lucinda Williams


Lucinda Williams Chords


Lucinda Williams   Memphis Pearl written by Lucinda Williams
                                            Lorne Rall

Lucinda Williams     Lead vocals, acoustic guitar
Gurf Morlix          Electric and acoustic guitar/background vocals 
Duane Jarvis         Electric guitar 
Dr. John Ciambotti   Bass
Donald Lindley       Drums and percussion
Doug Atwell          fiddle

A               D         A     
Back in Memphis she was a pearl
A                  D        A    
She was everyone's favorite girl
D                           A     
Now her eyes have a vacant stare
A                            D            A    
What she wouldn't give to be livin' back there
A                      D        A
She married a man when she left home
A                            D         A
She wanted someone she could call her own
       D                           A
He was good to her when he wasn't drunk
A                              D          A
He'd hold her and tell her how pretty she looked
A                     D        A
Back in Memphis where she grew up
A                      D        A
The life she knew was just not enough
D                              A
Back in Memphis when she was a girl
A                    D            A   
She thought one day she'd own the world
A                        D      A 
She'd look at the TV and magazines
A                         D              A
And she'd believe all the pictures she'd seen
D                                    A
She'd be wearin' silk and perfume so sweet
A                                    D           A
But those things don't mean much out here on the street

SOLO

A               D       A
Back in Memphis she had fun
A                     D    A   
Goin' around, tellin' everyone
        D                                 A
She was gonna buy dresses that zip up the side
A                             D           A
And wear red lipstick, have a nice car to drive
A                    D      A
She bounces her baby on her knee
A                            D             A
Sayin' maybe today we'll get lucky, you'll see
  D                               A
I promise it won't always be like this
A                      D       A
Come here, sugar, give Mamma a kiss
A               D       A 
Back in Memphis another time
A                             D        A 
Didn't look like things would turn out fine
D                              A
Back in Memphis when she was a girl
A                   D             A
She thought one day she'd own the world
A               D         A
Back in Memphis she was a pearl
