The Mississippi delta

Was shining like a

national guitar

I am following the river

down the highway

Through the cradle

of the Civil War

I'm going to Graceland

Graceland

In Memphis Tennessee

I'm going to Graceland

Poorboys and pilgrims

with families

And we are going

to Graceland

My traveling companion

is nine years old

He is the child of

my first marriage

But I've reason to believe

We both will be received

In Graceland

She comes back to

tell me she's gone

As if I didn't know that

As if I didn't know my own bed

As if I'd never noticed

The way she brushed

her hair from her forehead

And she said losing love

Is like a window in your heart

Everybody sees

you're blown apart

Everybody sees the wind blow

I'm going to Graceland

Memphis Tennessee

I'm going to Graceland

Poorboys and Pilgrims

with families

And we are going to Graceland

And my traveling companions

Are ghosts and empty sockets

I'm looking at ghosts

and empties

But I've reason to believe

We all will be received

In Graceland

There is a girl in New York City

Who calls herself

the human trampoline

And sometimes when

I'm falling flying

Or tumbling in turmoil I say

Whoa so this is

what she means

She means we're

bouncing into Graceland

And I see losing

Is like a window in your heart

Everybody sees

you're blown apart

Everybody feels the wind blow

In Graceland in Graceland

I'm going to Graceland

For reasons I cannot explain

There's some part of me

wants to see Graceland

And I may be obliged to defend

Every love every ending

Or maybe there's

no obligations now

Maybe I've a reason to believe

We all will be received

In Graceland

Whoa oh oh oh in Graceland

in Graceland in Graceland

I'm going to Graceland
