That's How I Got to Memphis

1 4

If you love somebody enough

1

You’ll follow wherever they go

2m

That’s how I got to Memphis

4 1

That’s how I got to Memphis

If you love somebody enough

You’ll go where your heart wants to go

That’s how I got to Memphis

That’s how I got to Memphis

5 4 1

I know if you’d seen her you’d tell me ’cause you are my friend

5 4 1 5

I’ve got to find her and find out the trouble she’s in

1 4

If you tell me that she’s not here

1

I’ll follow the trail of her tears

2m

That’s how I got to Memphis

4 1

That’s how I got to Memphis

She would get mad and she used to say

That she’d come back to Memphis someday

That’s how I got to Memphis

That’s how I got to Memphis

I haven’t eaten a bite

Or slept for three days and nights

That’s how I got to Memphis

That’s how I got to Memphis

I’ve got to find her and tell her that I love her so

I’ll never rest ’til I find out why she had to go

Thank you for your precious time

Forgive me if I start to cryin’

That’s how I got to Memphis

That’s how I got to Memphis

That’s how I got to Memphis

That’s how I got to Memphis
