_ Now this afternoon she's here with her guitarist Arthur Nielsen and we are happy to present in the newly expanded
KPLU performance studios Shemekah Copeland _ _
What do you got to start off for us today?
This one's called never going back to Memphis
_ It's a kind of ironic.
This song is all about why I'm never going back to Memphis
_ _ We're gonna do it for you
[E] _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _
[A] _ [Em] _ _ _ [A] _ _ [Em] _ [A] _
_ [G] _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _
_ [Em] _ _ [A] He [E] _ _
[Am] walked across [E] the road
[A] _ [E] _ [A] In [D] a [E] neon light
[A] _ [Em] _ _ _
dark pear shades _ _
[E] Blocking out the night
[A] _ _ [Bm] _ [Bb]
[E] smoke rings blowing
[F] _ [E] _ [D] white [Em] owl panatella
There _ _ wasn't a thing
[A] _ [E] That [Bb]
[G] man [Em] couldn't tell you
[A] _ [E] He _
[Em] _ [B] kept a 45 in a crown royal [A] bag wiped the fingerprints off
Handed me the rag.
[Em] I'm never going back to Memphis _
_ [Gm] I'm _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ never going back to Memphis _
_ [G] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ Little while later
[A] _ [D] _ [E] _ _
Sirens [Em] started screaming
[A] _ It _ [E] felt like a [Em] nightmare
_ [A] _ But you [E] know, I wasn't dreaming
_ [A] _ [E] [B] cops _ [Em] _
walked in
_ _ _ [G] dog pulling [E] on a chain
[D] _ [E] _ _ [D] Looking [Em] for a woman
[A] _ [E] _ [G] running [Em] from the rain
They _ _ [B] _
sat out front
Eating fried chicken [A] while I shivered in a shed out behind the kitchen.
[E] I'm never going back to Memphis _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
I'm never going back [D] to Memphis
[Em] _ _
[G] _ _ _ [Em] _ So [B] don't ask where _ _ _ _
[C] I'm never going back [B] to Memphis _ [Em]
again
_ _ _ That's _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ [A] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gbm] _ [Em] _ [D] _ _
[B] _ [Bb] _ [A] _ _ [Bb] _ [G] _ [E] _ _
[Bm] Arthur Nielsen y'all
_ _ [Em] _ _
[A] _ [D] _ [Em] _ The river is [A] rising
[D] _ [E] _ [A] _ [G] Skies [E] getting darker
[A] _ [Dm] [Em] My _ mind keeps playing
[A] _ [E] some [Bb] _ [G] old [Em] junior park
_ [A] [Em] three _ _ days waiting
[A] _ [Em] _ All [E] alone by the tracks
[A] _ _ _ [Em] lying to _ [A] myself
_ [E] _ [D] That [E] man's coming back _
_ [Em] _ _ _ [B] He said he'd come around unless he was dead.
[A] Yes.
He took another woman or bullet in the [Ab] head
[Em] I'm never going back to Memphis
_ _ [G] I'm _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ never going back to Memphis
_ _ [G] _ _ So _ [Em] _ don't [B] ask where _
_ _ _ [C] Cause I'm never going [B] back to Memphis again
[E] _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ You
