(619) 239-KING - Mojo Nixon and Skid Roper

Tabbed by Adam Bishop

Another song that is all shuffle chords:

A - x02220
D - xx0232
E - 022100

Intro: (x4)
E|--------------------------------------------------
B|--------------------------------------------------
G|--------------------------2--2--------------------
D|--------------2--2--4--4--------4--4--2--2--------
A|--0--0--4--4--------------------------------4--4--
E|--------------------------------------------------

That part is more or less the same as the bass part.  But for the rest of the song, the guitar 
mostly just plays shuffle chords.

     A            D              A
Well I wanna know man, is Elvis alive
     D                            A
Yeah I got to know man, is Elvis alive
       E                  D                A     E
Yeah I got to cut through all this tabloid jive

Well I listen to the tapes of the woman on Larry king
I'd give anything just to hear him sing again
Elvis pick up that phone, and give me a ring, call me Elvis

At (619) 239-KING
(619) 239-KING
Come on now Elvis, want you to call me

Now Elvis, this is a real number, don't cost a whole lot to call.  Now some of you folks out
there might know where Elvis is, you can call too and tell me.  I ain't talking about the 
Batphone, it's the Ephone!

Danny Partridge, Wayne Newton, and Liberace
I don't want to get no calls from you fools you see
Only Tom Jones and the Big E can call me, yeah you know the number

Chorus

Play that thing man

Piano solo

Some people say you live on an island, with Marilyn Monroe
Every night Jim Bobo the Chimp puts on a great big show
When you get sick you call up Dr. Nick

Elvis if you're coming back you got to do it right
No Vegas no movies just leather, black and tight
If I Can Dream, Mystery Train, come on Elvis give me a ring

Chorus

Solo:

This is not particularily accurate but it's the best I could figure out.

Chorus

Operators are standing by.  Give me a call man, yeah, if the phone's busy, try again.  No 
I don't want to talk to Sonny.  I sure don't want to talk to Lamar!  Albert Goldman, kiss my 
butt! EP phone home.  I said EP phone home.  Give me a call Elvis, no I won't tell the 
Colonel, or the Weekly World News either man!  Come on, call me boy! (Ringing) Say what? 
You want me to do what? Get Priscilla in her white underwear and big black mascara, and 
her hands sticking way up high, then you'll come running fast? Say you're going to jump in 
the Cadillac and see me? Oh Elvis I'm gonna get Priscilla for you boy, whoo yeah!

Chorus
