Graceland
Paul Simon
D G Hm A D
DThe Mississippi Delta was shining
Like a National guiGtar
I am Hmfollowing the river
Down the highway
Through the cradle of the civil Awar
GI'm going to DGraceland
Graceland
In Memphis TennesAsee
I'm Ggoing to DGracelandDCG
DPoorboys and Pilgrims with families
And Awe are Ggoing to DGracelandDCG
My Dtraveling companion is nine years Aold
GHe is the Dchild of my first marriageDCG
But I've Dreason to believe
We Aboth will be Greceived
In DGracelandDCG

DShe comes back to tell me she's gone
As Gif I didn't know that
As if I didn't know my own Hmbed
As Aif I'd never noticed
The way she brushed her hair from her Dforehead
And she said losing love
Is like a window in your Gheart
Everybody sees you're Hmblown Gapart
Everybody sees the Awind blow
I'm Ggoing to DGraceland
Memphis TennesAsee
I'm Ggoing to DGracelandDCG
DPoorboys and Pilgrims with families
And Awe are Ggoing to DGracelandDCG
And my Dtraveling companions
Are ghosts and empty Gsockets
I'm looking at ghosts and DemptiesDCG
But I've Dreason to believe
We Aall will be Greceived
In DGracelandDCG

DThere is a girl in New York City
Who calls herself the human trampoGline
And Hmsometimes when I'm falling, flying
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
AWOh, so this is what she means
She means we're Dbouncing into Graceland
And I see losing love
Is like a window in your Gheart
Everybody sees you're Hmblown apart
Everybody feels the Awind blow
Oooo in DGraceland, in GracelandDCG
I'm going to DGracelandDCG
For reasons I Dcannot explain
There's some part of me Awants to Gsee
DGracelandDCG
And I may be Dobliged to defend
Every love, every Gending
Or maybe there's Dno obligations nowDCG
Maybe I've a Dreason to believe
We Aall will be Greceived
In DGracelandDCG
