C#                              A#m
All I ever wanted was something classic
            C#                      A#m
The kind of love song that goes on 'til the
end of time
C#                             A#m
All I ever wanted was a little magic
       C#                    A#m
With a good laugh, jet-black sparkle in his eyes

Chorus:
                 C#             A#m
You're my velvet Elvis, I ain't never gonna
take you down
                 C#                A#m
Making everybody jealous when they step into
my house
C#                                  A#m
Soft to the touch, feels like love, knew it
as soon as I felt it
         C#              A#m
You're my velvet Elvis, baby

I don't really care 'bout the Mona Lisa
I need a Graceland kind of man who's
always on my mind
I wanna show you off every evening
Go out with you in powder blue and
tease my hair up high

Chorus

F# D#m
I knew it as soon as I felt it
F#         D#m
Mm-mm, I knew it as soon as I felt it

Chorus

You're my velvet Elvis, baby, yeah
