Oh my, but you have a pretty face
   |G                  |D
You favor a girl that I knew
  |G                         |D
I imagine that she's still in Tennessee
      |A                     |D
And by God, I should be there too
      |A                    |D      |D
I've a sadness too sad to be true

     |D                  |D
But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear
   |G                        |D
The same way that I'm leaving you
       |G                  |D
Because love is mainly just memories
   |A                    |D
And everyone's got them a few
           |A                        |D    |D
So when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you

      |G        |D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
      |D                    |A
You're lit’rally waltzing on air
      |G        |D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
       |D          A          |D      |D
There's no telling who will be there

* = 1st beat of measure

When I *leave it will be like I *found you love
Des*cending Victorian *stairs
*I'm feeling like one of your *photographs
*Trapped while I'm putting on *airs
Getting *even by asking who *cares  *

At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
There's no telling who will be there

So have *all of your passionate *violins
Play a *tune for a Tennessee *kid
Who's *feeling like leaving a*nother town
With *no place to go if he *did
Cause they'll *catch you wherever you're *hid   *

At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
There's no telling who will be there
