His Latest Flame - Elvis Presley
F Dm F Dm
A very old friend came by today
F Dm
’Cos he was telling everyone in town
F Dm
About the love that he just found
Bb C7 Dm
And Marie’s the name of his latest flame
Chorus :
C7 Bb C7 Bb
Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
C7 Bb C7 Bb
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
C7 Bb C7 Bb
He was gone but still his words kept returning
C7 Bb F
What else was there for me to do but cry
Other verses :
He talked and talked and I heard him say
That she had the longest blackest hair
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
And Marie’s the name of his latest flame
Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
She’d be mine eternally
And Marie’s the name of his latest flame
