For those of you not up to snuff with your barre chords, capo the 2nd fret. F# becomes E, A becomes G, B becomes A, and E becomes D.
For D#, try this shape: x-x-x-1-2-1. For G#, lay down a power chord (4-6-6-x-x-x) or skip it altogether. It's not too important.

Baseball season will be starting soon
But we have no baseball team here
I’ve got a house right on the river

I can see Arkansas from where I am

Medicine bottle collection on the window sill
Shakes when the cars go past on interstate fifty-five
You are standing above me
F# E D#
You’ve washed your face with that apricot scrub again
F# E D#
I’m glad I am alive
And your skin is warming up
And my skin is warming up

And the sun is setting on Memphis
And the sun is setting on Memphis
