[Intro]
E B C#m A (x2)
[Verse]
E
Still remember that crackle
B
The needle laying down
C#m A
The stain of the glass in the chaple as we laid him in the ground
E B
Their feet shuffling oh they might start running
C#m A
Yeah, I'll run that Mississippi 'til my feet hit Tennessee ground
[Chorus]
E
Just like he told me
B
Never pray for change
A
That Memphis rain
[Verse]
E
Now my nightmare's my money
B
Been keeping my awake
C#m A
Never knew what the blues could do to a boy that was given everything it takes
E B
Now the Cadillac's hummin and my heart starts pumping
C#m A
Yeah there ain't no doubt that there's no way out from everything I ever wanted
[Chorus]
E
The pills and the pain
B
Never pray for change
A
That old Memphis Rain
[Bridge]
C#m B A
Ain't it gold, rock and roll, and it's mine
C#m B A
Don't mistake what it takes to lose sight of the line
C#m B F#m
Because in time you will find if you do
[Solo]
E B C#m A
(x2?)
[Verse]
E
Well they burned down Big Hill
B
And they marched away
C#m A
I can still see that old A-frame kickin' back off of that big lake
E
I still go there
B
To the middle of no-where
C#m A
It's a lifetime left to me gotta build it up to what it oughta be
[Chorus]
E
Just like he told me
B
Never pray for change
A
That 'ole Memphis Rain
