          G                   D                    C
When they dressed me and they put me on a plane to Memphis, well

  G                D     C
I never got to see Elvis

       G                   D
I just sweated it out in a hotel room

      C
But I think the king woulda understood

     G           D     C
Why I never made it to Graceland

             G          D               C
The bathroom tiles were cool against my hand

             G               D         C
I pressed my forehead to the floor and prayed for a trapdoor

     G              D
I've been here many times before

    C                     G        D      C
But I've never made it to Graceland
[Chorus]
                        G      D      C
And if I make it to the mornin'

                      G      D      C
I shoulda come with a warnin'

                         G
And if I make it to the stage

     D                C
I'll show you what it means

      G      D      C
To be saved
[Verse 2]
              G           D
Well, pick me up in New Orleans

       C
Pinned in a bathroom stall

        G           D
Pick me up above my body

         C
Press my corpse against the wall

           G
I told the band to leave without me

D    C
I'll get the next flight

         G                D
And I'll see you all with Elvis

     C
If I don't survive the night
[Chorus]
                    G      D      C
If I make it to the mornin'

                      G      D      C
I shoulda come with a warnin'

                         G
And if I make it to the stage

     D                C
I'll show you what it means

      G      D      C
To be saved
[Bridge]
          Am                       G
And after every tour, I swear I'll quit

     D                         C
It's over, boys, now this is it

Am
But the call, it always comes

        G           D         C             Am
And the songs, like children, beggin' to be born

                   G      D
But, oh, I guess I got my wish

    C         G            D         C
But anything, anything, anything but this
[Chorus]
                    G      D      C
If I make it to the mornin'

                      G      D      C
I shoulda come with a warnin'

                         G
And if I make it to the stage

     D                C
I'll show you what it means

      G       D      C
To be saved

                        G     D      C
Oh, you know I'm still afraid

                              G      D      C
I'm still crazy and I'm still scared

         G               D
But if I make it to the stage

     C
I'll show you what it means

       G      D      C
To be spared
[Outro]
       G      D      C
To be spared

       G      D      C
To be spared

       G      D      C
To be spared

       G
To be spared
