Your Majesty



Refrain:
Hey, King, 
I am staring at your photo on the wall
And the bartender tells me
That Memphis is the home of rock’n roll.
Here, they even play your music in the streets
They used to say that Elvis is destructive and forbidden for the kids
Now they say that Elvis is the King.
Hey, King, 
You went away long before I was born and you see,
I didn’t get to say Your Majesty.

Hey, King, 
I thought I saw you at Graceland, walking right through the door
You were holding your guitar and singing “Jailhouse rock”
I could swear I heard his voice
And I can’t put this into words,
Cause I swear to God that I have never seen
Since I last saw James Dean on the screen
Eyes that shined 
Just like the sun
And how I loved it when you sang those gospel songs
Now they finally say that you are the King
What the hell did it take them so long?

Refrain: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _.

Hey, King, 
It must’ve been unbelievable when you were gone, on 16th of August 1977
And I've never heard a voice like yours singing so sweetly Love Me Tender
His house became a museum
And people come to see him.
And I know that more than words could tell
They loved it when you sang “Heartbreak Hotel”
Photos on the walls,
In every place I go
I see your face on posters, you’re smiling back at me
And I’m only sorry that I never got the chance 
To see you and call you Your Majesty.

Refrain: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _.
