Graceland

<p>The Mississippi Delta Was shining like a National guitar I am following the river, down the highway Through the cradle of the Civil War</p><p>I'm going to Graceland, Graceland Memphis, Tennessee I'm going to Graceland Poorboys and pilgrims with families And we are going to Graceland</p><p>And my traveling companion is nine years old He is the child of my first marriage But I've reason to believe We both will be received In Graceland</p><p>She comes back to tell me she's gone As if I didn't know that As if I didn't know my own bed As if I'd never noticed The way she brushed her hair from her forehead</p><p>And she said losing love Is like a window in your heart Everybody sees you're blown apart Everybody sees the wind blow</p><p>I'm going to Graceland Memphis, Tennessee I'm going to Graceland Poorboys and pilgrims with families And we are going to Graceland</p><p>And my traveling companions Are ghosts and empty sockets I'm looking at ghosts and empties But I've reason to believe We all will be received In Graceland</p><p>There is a girl in New York City Who calls herself the human trampoline And sometimes when I'm falling, flying Or tumbling in turmoil I say Whoa, so this is what she means She means we're bouncing into Graceland</p><p>And I see losing love Is like a window into your heart And everybody sees you're blown apart Everybody feels the wind blow</p><p>In Graceland, in Graceland I'm going to Graceland For reasons I cannot explain There's some part of me wants to see Graceland And I may be obliged to defend Every love, every ending Or maybe there's no obligations now Maybe I've a reason to believe We all will be received In Graceland</p><p>Whoa-oh-oh-oh, in Graceland, Graceland, Graceland I'm going to Graceland</p>
