A little heads-up before we begin:
Every "Em" EXCEPT those in the chorus has a quick, two note pick-up on it: E--|-3--2--Em...
Ok? Good.
Tuning: Standard
Intro: G C (Play 3 times)
Em F
I was sitting there watching TV
Em F
Wendy came and sat on my knee
D C
She put her finger in my ear
D C
But I pulled it out so I could hear
Em F
But the newsman on the television said
Am G
He said, "The King of Rock & Roll was dead."
D C
And in the spooky television light
Em F
She said, "Don't ever forget this night."
Chorus:
G Em
I was f***ing Wendy under the stars
F G C
The night that Elvis died
G Em
I was f***ing Wendy under the stars
F G C G C
The night that Elvis died
As we walked across the dew wet field
I never ever thought she would yield
To my young body's aching desire
For an older woman's well banked fire
By the left hand I was led
To the place that we would make our bed
And embracing in the blue moonlight
She said, "Don't ever forget this night."
Chorus
She was thirty-one, I was seventeen
I found out then what passion could mean
I thought I loved her but I didn't know how
I don't love her when I see her now
With the tape deck turned up loud
She made a young man feel strong and proud
And in the coolness of the morning light
She said, "Don't ever forget this night."
Chorus
The night that Elvis died
The night that Elvis died
The night that Elvis died
