Confederate Railroad

Intro....    C    G    D    G

verse   G
        I hitchhiked up to memphis, a young boy in my prime
          C                                               G
        I thought that big old city would ease my Georgia mind
                               Bm
        After just one hour, I met a Southern girl
                      C
        She said they call me the Queen of Memphis
                     D                  G
        And then she took me around the world


chorus        D      C              G
        I saw stars dancing on the water
                Em     D                 C
        I heard Elvis singing Blue Suede Shoes
                  D     C            G       C
        That old muddy river was my witness
             G               D                      G        C  G  D  G
        The night I fell in love with the queen of Memphis


break ....

verse...I woke up the next morning a prisoner of her charms
        She show'd me things I'd never seen back there on that farm
        She set my soul on fire, she completed all my dreams
        A boy became a man that night in the arms of the Memphis Queen

chorus....

              Em                                G
        Just like that old man river she keeps rolling thru my mind
                Em                             C                 D
        And you know I won't forget her 'cause she was one of a kind


chorus.....
                  C       D                      G         C  G  D  G
        And I am still in love with the Queen of Memphis
