Oh my, but you have a pretty face

You favor a girl that I knew

I imagine that she's still in Tennessee

And by God, I should be there too

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

And everyone's got them a few

So when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you

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
