     C7
Long distance information, give me Memphis Tennessee

Help me find a party that tried to get in touch with me

    F
She could not leave a number but I know who placed the call

          C7                                          F
'Cause my uncle took a message and he wrote it on the wall

C7
Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie

She's the only one who'd call me here from Memphis Tennessee

    F
Her home is on the south side, high upon a ridge

C7                                      F
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge

     C7
Last time I saw Marie she was wavin' me goodbye

With "hurry-home" drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye

    F
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree

    C7                                         F
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee

C7
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add

Only that I miss her and all the fun we had

  F
Marie is only six years old, information please

C7                                            F
Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee
