[Intro]
G Em G Em
G Em G Em
Collecting dust inside that liquor store 'till you bought it for me
G Em C D N.C.
A decanter full of whiskey in the image of the King
G Em G Em
The more I drank from it the less I saw of you
G Em C D
That bottle's empty now and you and I are through
[Riff]
G Em G Em
G Em G Em
[Verse 1]
G Em
When you gave me the King of gifts
G Em
I didn't know what to say
G Em
Except a hundred and fifty dollars
G Em
Is an awful lot to pay
G
For a girl like you
Em G Em
who doesn't make much money, anyway
G Em
But you cared enough to put away
G Em
a little everyday
[Chorus]
D
For that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
C
A fitting symbol of our love, an empty likeness of the King
D
Your love for me went out the day you took that last remaining drink,
C C G Am G Em G Em
From that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
[Verse 2]
G Em G Em
They told me I should have saved it; it'd be worth something someday.
G Em G Em
But me, I couldn't wait, that King of Rock got lighter everyday.
G Em G Em
Soon it was half empty and I was half as close to you.
G Em G Em
And then I drank the rest, I should've guessed I drank our love in two.
[Chorus]
D
Oh, that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
C
A fitting symbol of our love, an empty likeness of the King
D
If I had filled it up or made it last would it have changed a thing?
C C G Am G Em G Em
Oh, that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
[Bridge]
G C G Am D
Oh, that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me.
G C G Am D
In the name of Elvis, why did you have to leave?
C G C G Am N.C. G Em G Em
When I love you and I need you desperately tonight.
[Riff]

Oh, that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me

Your love for me went out the day you took that last remaining drink,

From that Elvis decanter, the one you gave to me
