Last night I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter that looks [D] like Elvis.
I [C] soaked the label off a Flintstone jelly bean [G] jar.
[E] [G] I cleared us off a place on that warm little table that you [D] left us.
And
[C] pulled me up [D] a big old piece of floor.
[G]
[C] I pulled [Bm] the head [Am] off Elvis, [C] filled Fred up [Bm] to [Am] his pelvis.
Yabba [G] dabba doo, [C] the king [G] is gone and so are you.
[C] Round about ten we all got [D] to talking
[C] about Graceland, [D] Bedrock and such.
[C] The conversation finally [D] turned to women,
[C] but they said they didn't get around [D] too much.
