{written by: Otis Blackwell & Elvis Presley}
{1957}

     G
1. A well a bless my soul

What's wrong with me?

I'm itching like a man

On a fuzzy tree.

My friends say I'm actin'

As queer as a bug

I'm in love!

I'm All Shook Up.
          C         D          C
Uh uh huh.   Mmm  Yeah, Yeah.

2. My hands are shaky
And my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand
On my own two feet
Who do you thank
When you have such luck?
I'm in love! I'm All Shook Up.
Uh uh huh. MM Yeah, yeah.

   C                                          G
Please don't ask what's on my mind
   C                                          G
I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feelin' fine
   C                                          G
When I'm near that girl that I love the best
   C                              D
My heart beats so it scares me to death

3. She touched my hand
What a chill I got
Her kisses are like
A volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say
That she's my buttercup
I'm in love! I'm All Shook Up.
Uh uh huh. Mmm  Yeah, yeah.

My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this soul of mine
That's to have the girl that I love so fine

(repeat 3rd verse)

Elvis, because I thought the collection needed a version. All
