Morning Elvis (Acoustic)

[00:11.09] When they dressed me and they put me on a plane to Memphis, well

[00:17.46] I never got to see Elvis

[00:23.06] I just sweated it out in a hotel room

[00:26.26] But I think the king would have understood

[00:29.46] Why I never made it to Graceland

[00:34.53] The bathroom tiles were cool against my hand

[00:40.90] I pressed my forehead to the floor and prayed for a trapdoor

[00:47.01] I've been here many times before

[00:50.73] But I've never made it to Graceland

[00:57.37] And if I make it to the morning

[01:02.96] I should have come with a warning

[01:09.08] And if I make it to the stage

[01:11.99] I'll show you what it means

[01:16.80] To be saved

[01:22.64] Well, pick me up in New Orleans

[01:25.56] Pinned in a bathroom stall

[01:28.48] Pick me up above my body

[01:31.66] Press my corpse against the wall

[01:34.33] I told the band to leave without me

[01:37.25] I'll get the next flight

[01:40.17] And I'll see you all with Elvis

[01:43.62] If I don't survive the night

[01:46.54] If I make it to the morning

[01:50.79] I should have come with a warning

[01:56.90] If I make it to the stage

[01:59.57] I'll show you what it means

[02:04.61] To be saved

[02:10.19] And after every tour, I swear I'll quit

[02:14.16] It's over, boys, now this is it

[02:16.83] But the call, it always comes

[02:19.49] And the songs like children, begging to be born

[02:24.01] But, oh, I guess I got my wish

[02:27.99] But anything, anything, anything but this

[02:33.04] If I make it to the morning

[02:38.36] I should have come with a warning

[02:44.48] And if I make it to the stage

[02:47.40] I'll show you what it means

[02:52.20] To be saved

[02:56.71] Oh, you know I'm still afraid

[03:02.30] I'm still crazy and I'm still scared

[03:10.01] But if I make it to the stage

[03:12.67] I'll show you what it means

[03:15.86] To be spared

[03:21.96] To be spared

[03:27.81] To be spared

[03:33.93] To be spared

[03:39.78] To be spared
