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
