[A]
Looking at you through a misty moonlight, Katie did [D] swing like a symphony
[A] Porch swings swaying like a Tennessee lullaby, melody [D] blowing through a willow [E] tree
What [D] was I supposed to [E] do?
[D] Standing there looking at [E] you, [G] lonely boy [A] far from home
Maybe it was Memphis, [D] maybe it was Southern Summer Night, [Bm] maybe it was you, [D] maybe it was me but we [A] sure felt right
Read about you in a Faulkner novel, met you [D] once in a Williams [A] plug
Got [D] you in a country love [A] song, summer night beauty [D] took my breath [E] away
What [D] was I supposed to [E] do?
[D] Standing there looking at [E] you, [G] lonely boy far [A] from home
Maybe it was Memphis, [D] maybe it was Southern Summer Night, [Bm] maybe it was you, maybe [D] it was me but we [A] sure felt right
Maybe it was Memphis,
[D] maybe [Bm] it was you

Think about you on my mother's plug porch swing, talking that way, [D] so [E] soft and warm
What was [D] I supposed to do?
[E] Standing [D] there looking at [E] you, [G] lonely boy far [A] from home
