Intro: [whispering unintelligible phrase "..? you enjoy yourself all day..?"]
E (with blues fills)
Mmmmm mmmm oooooo (ad lib)

Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jamie Rogers on electro up high
Mamas dancing - baby on her shoulder
The sun is setting like molasses in the sky

The boy could sing and knew how to move - everything
G D
Always wanting more - it leaves you longing for
A D
Chorus: Black Velvet in that little boy's smile
a G Bm (or D/F# maybe?)
Black Velvet with that slow southern style
A D
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees
C7 B7 (no chord) E
Black Velvet - if you please
Up in Memphis the music is like a heat wave
White Lightnin' - bound to drive you wild
Mamas baby is in the heart of every school girl
Love me Tender leaves em cryin' in the isles
The way he moved it was a sin - so sweet and true
Always wanting more it leaves you longing for
-CHORUS-
A B E
Every word of every song that he sang is for you
a G C7 B7 (no chord) E
In a flash he was gone - it happened so soon - what could you do?
