Tennessee

C               Am             Em
I saw the river playing in the valley
C                Am                Em
Rushing 'round a bend and skipping stones
C                Am            Em
I saw the meadow wobble in the moonlight
C                   Am                Em
I've come to get my girl and take her home

    G                F              C
Her doorbell plays a bar of Stephen Foster
    G            F                     C
Her sister never left and look what it cost her
      G             F                  C
We're gonna live in Nashville and I'll make a career
       G           F                 C
Out of writing sad songs and getting paid by the tear

G            Am
Marry me and leave Kentucky
C             G   D
Come to Tennessee
       G               C     D
'Cause you're the only ten I see
G               C     D
You're the only ten I see

G                   Am                          C                 D
I've looked through offices and honky-tonks for men man enough to be 
G            C       D
Mr. and Mrs. Tennessee
G            C       D
Mr. and Mrs. Tennessee

C         Am                      Em
Punk rock died when the first kid said
C               Am           Em
"Punk's not dead, punk's not dead"
         C             Am                  Em
You know Louisville is death, we've got to up and move
            C       Am  Em
Because the dead do not improve

G           F                      C
Goodbye you suckers and steady bad luckers
      G                  F          C
We're off to the land of club soda unbridled
      G                  F               C
We're off to the land of hot middle-aged women
G                     F             C
Off to the land whose blood runneth orange

G            Am
Marry me and leave Kentucky
C             G   D
Come to Tennessee
       G               C     D
'Cause you're the only ten I see
G               C     D
You're the only ten I see

G                   Am                          C                 D
I've looked through offices and honky-tonks for men man enough to be
G            C       D
Mr. and Mrs. Tennessee
G            C       D
Mr. and Mrs. Tennessee
