B F# (A/G#)
There's a town that I call home
D#m B F#
Where all the streets are paved with soul
B
Down on Beale there's a honky-tonk bar
C#
So hear the wail of a blues guitar

Have a beer and drop a dime in the blind man's jar

I'm just a man from Tennessee

All I know is Memphis lives in me

I said I'm just a man from Tennessee
A#m7 B
Can't be what I can't be

All I know is Memphis lives

All I know is Memphis gives
F#/A# G#m7 C# F#
All I know is Memphis lives in me
