Long Way To Tennessee chords by Bobby Bare

Long Way to Tennessee

      D                            G
I'm a long, long way from where I want to be
       D                           G
In the Arizona prison they've got me
      D                     G       Em
And until they set me free, oh, oh, me
       Am                  D             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          D        C         D                G  G7
A long, long way from me to the girl that I love so
C        D        C      D            G  G7
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...
