G 
Flying high in the desert 
        C 
From another sold-out show 
G 
You gave 'em everything you had  
    C 
The boy from tupelo 
Am                         Dm 
You'll greet the dawn with gospel songs 
Em                  F 
You learned so long ago 
G 
When you sing 'em now 
             C 
Where do you go 

G 
Back before your hair was black 
C 
Before they called you king 
G 
You held the hand of Dixie  
         C 
And she proudly wore you ring 
Am                    Dm 
You hooked the sound and you were bound  
Em                   F 
For where you had to go 
G                                      C 
You had it all but how could you have known'

Would you go back to Dixie 
F                 C 
And turn in your crown' 
F 
Love her tender  
          Am        C      F 
Then burn Graceland to the ground' 
C                  Dm 
The movie's almost over  
            Em         F 
There won't be another show  
          G                           C 
Would you go back to Dixie, would you go' 

    G 
The old man's got you thinking  
    C 
You can't make it on your own

The two of you against the world  
      C 
Thats what youve come to know 
Am                   Dm  
He's at the roulette table 
         Em             F  
It's one thing he can't control 
G 
You can bet your life, 
                        C 
Hes gambling with your soul
