Long Way to Tennessee

   D MajorD              G+G
I'm a long, long way from where I want to be
    D MajorD              G+G
In the Arizona prison they've got me
   D MajorD           G+G    E minorEm
And until they set me free, oh, oh, me
    A minorAm         D MajorD       G+G
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee.

Oh, my mouth is dry with dust my throat is raw
How I miss those big green trees in Arkansas
On the way to where I'll be when they set me free
But it's a long, long way from here to Tennessee.

 C majorC     D MajorD    C majorC     D MajorD        G+G G7G7
A augmentedA long, long way from me to the girl that I love so
C majorC    D MajorD    C majorC   D MajorD      G+G G7G7
Will she wait for me, oh Lord I don't know

I know that I've done wrong but friends I've paid the price
Back in Tennessee I left sweet paradise.
But until they set me free, oh, oh, me
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee.
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee...
