Home of the blues is where I live
Trapped inside these lonely walls that won't forgive
Surrounded by a memory
Your goodbye haunts me like a Beale street melody
But I'd do anything, I'd get down on my knees
If my tears would set this ghost inside me free
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
I'm goin' three times under
I'm gonna drown my sorrows
In tears that roll like thunder
Til I can find the strength
So I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard the king was gone
Love me tender
Cuts through the dark
Comin' from an open window of a passin' car
And in that moment I believe
I can almost feel your body here next to me
But one heart beating
Slowly brings me back around
I know you're gone and I know I'm breakin' down
When I break down
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
I'm goin' three times under
Gonna drown my sorrows
In tears that roll like thunder
Til I can find the strength
So I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard the king was gone
Guitar solo
Til I can find the strength
So I can carry on
I'm gonna cry like Memphis
When they heard the king was gone
Ohhhhhh
When they heard the king was gone
Goodbye
