Karaoké Graceland Paul Simon

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

Poor boys 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

Poor boys and pilgrims with families and we are going to Graceland

And my traveling companions are ghosts and empty sockets

And I'm looking at ghosts and empties

I've reason to believe we all will be received in Graceland

There's 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 love is like a window in your heart

Well everybody sees you're blown apart everybody feels the wind blow

Ooh in Graceland, Graceland

I'm going to Graceland

For reasons I cannot explain there's some part of me who wants to see Graceland

And I may be advised 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

Oh in Graceland, Graceland

Graceland

I'm going to Graceland

Uh, uh uh, uh

Uh, uh uh, uh

Uh, uh uh, uh
