Elvis Presley gravou “Always on My Mind” em 29 de março de 1972 e a lançou como verso B do single “Separate Ways”, que atingiu status Gold nos EUA por vender mais de meio milhão de cópias.
Na Billboard, a dupla forma atingiu o número 16 na Hot Country Singles em novembro de 1972, enquanto a versão de Brenda Lee ficou apenas no #45 do mesmo ranking.
Em 2006, a interpretação de Presley foi tocada na Copa do Mundo FIFA e incluída no álbum promocional “Voices from the FIFA World Cup”.
O single de Elvis contou com “Separate Ways” como verso A no Reino Unido, onde “Always on My Mind” foi o hit principal, demonstrando a diferença de estratégia de lançamento entre os mercados.
A canção, embora não tenha sido gravada por Elvis antes de 1972, foi premiada em 1983 no 25º Grammy com Song of the Year e Best Country Song, embora esses prêmios tenham sido concedidos a outros artistas que a interpretaram.
