The Brand New Tennessee Wzatlz by Jesse Winchester
D
Oh my but you have a pretty face
G D
You favour a girl that I knew
G D
I imagine that she's still in Tennessee
A7 D
And by God I should be there too
A7 D
I've a sadness too sad to be true
D
But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear
G D
The same way that Im leaving you
G D
Because love is mainly just memories
A7 D
And everyone's got him a few
A7 D
So when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you
Chorus:
G D
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
(D) A7
You're literally waltzing on air
G D
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
(D) A7 D
There's no telling who will be there
D
When I leave it'll be like I found you love
G D
Descending Victorian stairs
G D
I'm feeling like one of your photographs
A7 D
Trapped while I'm putting on airs
A7 D
And getting even by asking who cares
D
So have all of your passionate violins
G D
Play a song for a Tennessee kid
G D
Who's feeling like leaving another town
A7 D
With no place to go if he did
A7 D
'Cause they'll catch you wherever you're hid
