Saarloos, Andy Kavanagh, Brian McGovern and Craig Gallagher - Memphis (Acoustic)

I was singing songs in a bar back in 63
On the north east side of south west Tennessee
Walking on home tripping on my whiskey feet
She was waiting for a bus on the dark side of the street

I feel harder than I ever fell
I feel harder than I ever fell
I feel hard, I feel hard.

I asked for her name and if she'd have a drink with me
We whispered of the words of King and Kennedy
She opened up my eyes to things that I could never see
Such a love can be be cruel in the deep dark Memphis heat

We feel harder than we ever fell
We feel harder than we ever fell
We fell hard, We fell hard.

Breaking all the rules and hiding from our family's
Taking on the world baby it was you and me
Baby it was you and me

Took a bus north Chicago was the place to be
Standing In an empty church I told her how I feel
No-one understood, to them we were a mystery
Im glad I took a chance to tell her what she meant to me.

Then she feel harder than she ever fell
She feel harder than she ever fell
She fell hard, she fell hard

Now I'm all alone sleeping by a maple tree
My baby's six feet under waiting for me patiently
