Memphis (Acoustic)

I was singing songs in a bar back in 63 On the north east side of south west Tennessee Walking on home tripping on my whiskey feet She was waiting for a bus on the dark side of the street I feel harder than I ever fell I feel harder than I ever fell I feel hard, I feel hard. I asked for her name and if she'd have a drink with me We whispered of the words of King and Kennedy She opened up my eyes to things that I could never see Such a love can be be cruel in the deep dark Memphis heat We feel harder than we ever fell We feel harder than we ever fell We fell hard, We fell hard. Breaking all the rules and hiding from our family's Taking on the world baby it was you and me Baby it was you and me Took a bus north Chicago was the place to be Standing In an empty church I told her how I feel No-one understood, to them we were a mystery Im glad I took a chance to tell her what she meant to me. Then she feel harder than she ever fell She feel harder than she ever fell She fell hard, she fell hard Now I'm all alone sleeping by a maple tree My baby's six feet under waiting for me patiently
