Well I just took a left on 57 South.
With a stogie in my hand and a lighter in my mouth.
There's a transient in the backseat and my dog is riding 'gun.
We're making easy money and we're always on the run.

When you're pimping ho's in style, there's just one place to be.
It's nestled in the corner of southwestern Tennessee.
My dog who knew the King he told me just the other day.
The only one from Memphis is the Presley's Adelay.

Making Easy Money Pimping Hoes In Style.
The only one from Memphis is at Graceland.
Making Easy Money Pimping Hoes In Style.
It's good to have you in the band.

Adelay is in the backseat and the money's in the tank.
The cops are right behind us on a beeline from the bank.
With the pedal to the floor we pass the border and we're free.
And fading in the rearview is Memphis, Tennessee.

Making Easy Money Pimping Hoes In Style.
The only one from Memphis is at Graceland.

It's good to have you in the band.\\r

I didn't mean no harm,
I know there's no alarm,
And now we've made our choice.

There is no turning back,
You've always had the knack,
To hear your inner voice.

But now you tune it out,
And then begin to shout,
Until your face turns red.

And Amos pleads his case,
And you remove his face,
From what was once his head.

And if you ever see me in my dreams.
And if you know that life was what it seems.
And now you wish that it was yesterday.
But that's the price you have to pay.

No time to reminisce,
But time is what you miss,
It seems you've got no chance.

A mask to hide your face,
And wings to win your race,
We've had a change of plans.

And in the thick of night,
With not a speck of light,
And with your fingers curled.

How did you kill your friend,
And have you reached the end,
Of your forsaken world.

And if you ever see me in my dreams.
And if you know that life was what it seems.
And now you wish that it was yesterday.
But that's the price you have to pay.

The confrontation was a necessary act.
We traded in our lives but took a million back.
And in the end, it seems I get what I deserve.
But for one moment's time, I wish I had the nerve.

intro/main progression

(I found that the easiest way to learn the chord voicings is to finger pick it)

E
B 8 8 8 10 7 7 7 10 10 10 8 8 8 8
G 9 9 9 9 10 10 9 9 7 9
D 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 9 10
A 8
E

then...

C > G > A

A G
And if you ever see me in my dreams..

D > C > A

then..

E > G > F#m > A > C > Bm > E
and
E > G > F#m > A > main progression

Chorus

- E 5
- B 7 5
A > D with a - G 7 6 at the end of each line.
- D 7
- A
- E

that is only one way of playing the chorus part. basically you just need to make sure you're throwing in a F# note to a D note below it that resolves to a E note, which is part of the A major chord you go back into. So the whole thing is a A > D progression with a couple notes thrown in between.
