[intro] FCCGC
[verse]
C
You're a little long in the tooth, babe
FC
Me, I'm puffy and under the weather
CC/BAm
But the drunker I get, that band gets tighter,
D7G
and honey, you're lookin' better
C
So here's to dim lights in dingy bars,
F
to the alcohol haze and the smoke
CC/BAm
and the chance to reinvent ourselves
D7GC
Hey baby, let's go for broke
[chorus]
FCGC
And pretend I'm Elvis for just one night
FCD7G
I will call you Priscilla, if that's alright
FCEAm
Hey don't we look sorta like em' in the neon light?
DDmGFC
Let's pretend I'm Elvis, darlin', for just one night
[verse]
C
Now it's one a.m and we follow the band
FC
down a dead and lonely street
CC/BAm
Here's a song about our destiny,
D7G
how we were meant to meet
C
So drink up honey and wrap me
F
in good looks, fortune and fame
CC/BAm
I don't need to know who you really are
D7GC
You don't need to know my name
[chorus]
FCGC
And pretend I'm Elvis for just one night
FCD7G
I will call you Priscilla, if that's alright
FCEAm
Hey don't we look sorta like em' in the neon light?
DDmGFC
Let's pretend I'm Elvis, darlin', for just one night
[bridge]
AmC
Two more drinks and that cab outside will become a limo
AmEm
You and me we gotta hang on tight to this fragile spell
DmAm
But girl, it ain't easy and I get queasy as hell
Dm
lookin' at a map where every road leads back
GG7
to my room at the Heartbreak Hotel
[verse}
C
We all need God's redemption, honey
FC
Tonight Graceland is a bar
CC/BAm
And even if I don't sing too good,
D7G
or play the guitar
C
I think I could love you tender,
F
treat you like a queen,
CC/BAm
We can work a little magic
D7GC
If you'll imagine I'm the King
[chorus]
FCGC
And pretend I'm Elvis for just one night
FCD7G
I will call you Priscilla, if that's alright
FCEAm
Hey don't we look sorta like em' in the neon light?
DDmGFC
Let's pretend I'm Elvis, darlin', for just one night
DDmGFC
Let's pretend I'm Elvis, darlin', for just one night
