Text: Waylon Jennings. Nobody Knows.
Verse 1:
B
Well i nearly got caught at a Burger King
And a couple of times on a plane
E
I thought i was safe from detection
With all of the weight i had gained
B
But walking around in a jumpsuit
That didn't work worth a damn
E
So i bought me some Levis and grew me a beard
F# B
And you'll never guess who i am
Chorus:
E
Nobody knows i'm Elvis
Nobody knows this is me
After all of my tries...i've got
The perfect disguise
B
And i'm who i want to be
E
Nobody knows i'm Elvis
Nobody knows this is me
Verse 2:
B
Bet you thought i was ol'Waylon
With all of my rugged good looks
E
Swagger and walk,body and soul
I bet he had what it took
B
I've always envied his singing
The way he played a guitar
E
Black vest and hat,that's where it's at
F# B
That's what i call a star
Chorus.
Bridge:
F#
I want to show you Graceland,baby
That's where you ought to be
I'll give you a call...but let's keep it all
B
Somewhere between you and me
Chorus.
