Capo 2nd
[Intro]
Am Am/G F G
[Verse 1]
Am Am/G F G
Midnight at Graceland in '72
Am Am/G F G
Shooting TV with groupies in the Jungle Room
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/F
A little fame and fortune was all he had left
C G C
He had become a parody of himself
[Verse 2]
Am Am/G F G
They dug his grave by the kitchen door
Am Am/G F G
And millions of blue-haired ladies took the guided tour
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/F
His Chinese fan club came over on a boat
C G C
And took pictures at his birthplace in Tupelo
[Chorus]
F C G C
Some disappear, they drop out of sight
F C G
Some stay too long and get crucified
F C
Whoa this world ain't no place to be
E7 Am Am/G C G Am Am/G F G (2x)
When you're larger than life, Ohhh even heroes die
[Verse 3]
Am Am/G F G
Over on the poor side of Birmingham
Am Am/G F G
He was preaching on the corner but nobody gave a damn
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/F
Except a couple hookers and a homeless man
C G C
A dozen losers were his best friends
[Verse 4]
Am Am/G F G
At the church across the street, they were raising hell
Am Am/G F G
They said if he is a man of God, why do his old clothes smell
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/F
They ran him out of town for disturbing the peace
C G C
He died on a shelter cot in his sleep
[Chorus]
F C G C
Some disappear, they drop out of sight
F C G
Some stay too long and get crucified
F C
Whoa this world ain't no place to be
E7 Am Am/G Am/F#
When you're larger than life,
C G Am Am/G Am/F#
Whoa, even heroes die
C G Am Am/G F G Am
Whoa, even heroes die
