G          A7          D                G
Once long ago, all the faithful held a show
                       A7           C7
Down in Elvis Presley Boulevard on Memphis Radio
             G              A7            D                   G
Where the hopeless held a vigil and the nameless played the charts
                             A7             C7
Where the losers lost their sorrow and the lonely left their hearts

[Chorus]
Bb                           Am
Step on these shoes then I'll see you in hell
Dm7                     G      C   G
"Love me so tender," I cry
Bb/F                 F
Save me a room in the Heartbreak Hotel
C                     D
I'm so alone, I could die

[Verse 2]
G         A7          D           G
I took a ride with my baby by my side
                       A7              C7
Down to Elvis Presley Boulevard where all the faithful cried
      G               A7              D              G
And I saw that silent mansion and I knew that I was lost
                            A7          C7
They were selling plastic souvenirs of Elvis on the cross

[Chorus]
Bb                           Am
Step on these shoes then I'll see you in hell
Dm7                     G     C   G
"Love me so tender," I cry
Bb/F                  F
Save me a room in the Heartbreak Hotel
C                     D
I'm so alone, I could die

[Bridge]
Eb    F7         Bb      Eb  Cm7   F7      Bb
Drive down that road tonight, everyone is gone
Eb F7     Gm7                         Am7     D7#9   N.C.
No body's home but the light's always on

[Verse 3]
G          A7           D            G
Man I was beat, I was driven by the heat
                        A7          C7
Down to Elvis Presley Boulevard, a one-way dead end street
       G                 A7           D               G
And I smashed my car to pieces and I said goodbye to youth
                      A7            C7
I heard all the ugly rumors and I could not face the truth

[Solo]
Bb7   Am    Dm    G  C  G

[Chorus]
Bb/F                  F
Save me a room in the Heartbreak Hotel
C                      D
I'm so alone, I could die
N.C
Drive down that road tonight, everyone is gone
Eb   F7    Gm7                    Am7        D7#9
No  body's home but the light's always on
