[Verse 1: Florence Welch, Ethel Cain, Both]
When they dressed me and they put me on a plane to Memphis, well
I never got to see Elvis
I just sweated it out in a motel room
But I think the king would've understood
Why I never made it to Graceland
Bathroom tiles were cool against my hand
I pressed my forehead to the floor and I prayed for a trapdoor
I've been here many times before
But I've never made it to Graceland
[Chorus: Florence Welch & Ethel Cain]
And if I make it to the mornin'
I shoulda come with a warnin'
And if I make it to the stage
I'll show you what it means
To be saved
[Verse 2: Ethel Cain, Florence Welch, Both]
Well, pick me up in New Orleans
Pinned in a bathroom stall
Pick me up above my body
Press my corpse against the wall
I told the band to leave without me
I, I'll get the next flight
And I'll see you all with Elvis
If I don't survive the night
When they dressed me and they put me on a plane to Memphis, well
I never got to see Elvis
I just sweated it out in a motel room
But I think the king would've understood
Why I never made it to Graceland
Bathroom tiles were cool against my hand
I pressed my forehead to the floor and I prayed for a trapdoor
I've been here many times before
But I've never made it to Graceland
[Chorus: Florence Welch & Ethel Cain]
And if I make it to the mornin'
I shoulda come with a warnin'
And if I make it to the stage
I'll show you what it means
To be saved
[Verse 2: Ethel Cain, Florence Welch, Both]
Well, pick me up in New Orleans
Pinned in a bathroom stall
Pick me up above my body

And I'll see you all with Elvis
If I don't survive the night
