C Am C Am G7 C G7 C C C

              C                                Am
Well I know he was the King of Rock 'n' Roll
      C                       Am  
And I know he was the Houndog Jailbird that got away
       C                    Am 
Well I know he had the Pink Cadillac
        C                      Am 
And the big white suit that he wore

       G7            C
But it still remains in my mind 
       G7                     C
That I never loved him and he never loved me
       G7             C
Yeah it still remains in my mind
       G7                     C 
That I never loved him and he never loved me
     
       C                          Am
Well I know he had the voice of 10,000 robins
       C                     Am  
And I know his accent was so fine
       C                    Am
Well I know his hair gelled up to the sky
        C          Am  
And the girls just wanted him

G7            C
But it still remains in my mind 
       G7                     C
That I never loved him and he never loved me
       G7             C
Yeah it still remains in my mind
       G7                     C 
That I never loved him and he never loved me

       C                   Am  
Well I know his songs just blew you away
      C                        Am
And I know his singing did the same
       C                     Am             
Well I know the drugs didn't help a bit
            C                         Am
Because the genius from Tennessee was dead so quickly

C Am C Am C Am

     C                           Am
Some people may have loved him a bit
C                                 Am
People say he was the greatest of all
    C            Am
But if I did and if I wanted to
    C            Am  
But if I did and if I wanted to
C                Am
You all know and I all know 
C                    Am                 
And you all know and I all know
C                              Am
Elvis didn't give a *** about me

G7            C
But it still remains in my mind 
       G7                     C
That I never loved him and he never loved me
       G7             C
Yeah it still remains in my mind
       G7                     C 
That I never loved him and he never loved me
G7            C
But it still remains in my mind 
       G7                     C
That I never loved him and he never loved me
       G7             C
Yeah it still remains in my mind
       G7                     C 
That I never loved him and he never loved me

  C     Am    C            
I Never Loved Elvis
       C     Am    C
And he Never Loved me
