Beginning (play twice):          G-F-C 
                         D-C-G 
 
G                                        D 
Another night in another town in another smoky place 
D                Am                              C        
Me and the Full Band were sitting backstage looking at the  
D 
face 
         G                                       D 
Of the lead singer of the opening act who had just left the stage 
         Am                      C                 D 
I saw youthful greatness in his eyes despite his age 
And he said, 
 
 
Take a picture why don?t ya?, many others have done the same 
Cause I was once called Elvis Presley, but now Jackson is my name 
We sat there in silence as reality set in 
And I had so many things to ask him and didn?t know where to begin 


 
Refrão -------------
Am 
God save the king 
Em             G                         D 
He said its not as easy as it looks 
C                G 
To live as royalty 
Am 
God save the king 
Em               G       D 
He said I never died I was just tired 
C                G 
Of living in Tennessee

(Go into beginning) 
 
His voice was undeniably of the man that he claimed to be 
He wore a Poor David?s Pub t-shirt and a faded pair of jeans 
The smell of a bar at midnight, man this is what it?s all about 
You know I tried to get back for years, but the Colonel sold me out 
 
Chorus 
 
(There?s a little bridge that?s just G and C back and forth about three times)

Think I got it. If not send the right ones. Guarantee you this is the only tab  
for this song so far on the internet.
