[length: 03:05]
[00:20.63]So the ambulances came
[00:23.95]They took your pulse and packed up your things
[00:26.51]And the papers read
[00:29.39]Some boys forget what the heartache brings
[00:31.83]And the pounding in the street
[00:34.67]Was your heart in 4/4 time
[00:36.87]And the taste of defeat
[00:39.87]Was never too far from your mind
[00:47.60]And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
[00:52.80]I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
[00:57.92]And in my head there’s all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
[01:03.24]I always kinda sorta wished I was someone else
[01:11.04]So gravity came
[01:13.72]And stole the temple that the schoolboys praised
[01:16.04]And the crowd shuffled in
[01:18.74]You’re getting drinks for the same boys who once bought you everything
[01:22.56]And the powder on the bar was just this one time
[01:26.71]The patter on the bar was just this one night
[01:31.23]And only to get by
[01:37.19]And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
[01:42.19]I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
[01:47.43]And in my head there’s all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
[01:52.67]I always kinda sorta wished I was someone else
[02:00.39]There was “Southern Accents” on the radio as I drove home
[02:08.99]”And at night, I wake up with the sheets soaking wet”
[02:11.51]It’s a pretty good song, baby you know the rest
[02:16.15]Baby, you know the rest
[02:19.03]And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
[02:24.13]Always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
[02:29.22]And in my head there’s all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
[02:34.37]I always kinda sorta wished I was someone else
[02:39.85]When our boots they hit the ground
[02:42.02]They made a high and lonesome sound
[02:45.10]When our boots they hit the ground
[02:47.22]They made a high and lonesome sound
[02:50.26]When our boots they hit the ground
[02:52.54]They made a high and lonesome sound
[02:55.46]When our boots they hit the ground
[02:57.70]Down from the clouds
[02:59.70]They made a high and lonesome sound
