Last night I broke the seal
Of Jimmy DeTandre that looked [B] like Elvis
[A] Soak a label on [B] a [E] fledged stone jelly jar
I cleared us off a place called the
Little Table [B] at the Chilter's
[A] Pulled me up [B] a big old [E] hunk of floor
I pulled the [F#m] head off Elvis
[A] Filled Fred up [F#m] to his pelvis
Yeah, but that was [E] news
The king is gone, so are you
Yeah, but that was news
The king is gone, so are you
[A] Along about him we all [B] got to talk at
[A] About Graceland and bedrock [B] and such
[A] The conversation finally [B] curved
But [A] they said they didn't get around [B] too much
[A] Elvis said find [B] them young
Fred [E] said old-fashioned women [A] are fine
Yeah, but that was news
The king [E] is gone, so are you Everybody sing!
Yeah, but that was news
The king is gone, so are you
[A] Well, I broke [B] Fred's leaf nose
[E] Worn the last drop [A] from his toe
Fred was rolling [B] on the floor
Then [A] I [B] let us sleep [E] in perfect harmony
Yeah, but that was news
The king is gone, so are you
Yeah, but that was news
The king is gone, [B] so [E] are you
One more time!
Yeah, but that was news
The king is gone, [A#] so [B] are you
Two more times!
Yeah, but that was news
The king is gone, [E] so are you
This may be the best song you ever heard in your whole life.
Thank you for all you do.
