Chords with lyrics
Capo 2nd at first
Intro: D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD G+G
D MajorD
It's a big estate
A augmentedA
With wrought iron gates
G+G D MajorD
And palm trees standing tall
G+G D MajorD
Fancy mirrors and chandleirs
AsusAsus A augmentedA
Comfort wall to wall
D MajorD A augmentedA
And the ocean air is so crisp and clear
G+G D MajorD
And they rave about our view
G+G A augmentedA
But there ain't no mountain breeze
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
And there ain't no hickory trees
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
And this ain't Tennessee
D MajorD A augmentedA
And she ain't you
D MajorD
There's a bedroom suite
A augmentedA
Where she comes to me
G+G D MajorD
And as her fingers touch my face
G+G D MajorD
I close my eyes and I fantasize
AsusAsus A augmentedA
Of another time and place
G+G D MajorD
What she feels is so warm and real
G+G A augmentedA
And I know her love is true
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
And she tries so hard to plese
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
Still I think sometimes she sees
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
That this ain't Tennessee
D MajorD
And she ain't you
G+G D MajorD
It's not thatit's not good enough
G+G D MajorD
And it's not that I'm not man enough
G+G D MajorD
There's just something easy going that I love
A augmentedA G+G
about you and tennessee
(Slide the Capo to the 3rd fret)
D MajorD A augmentedA
So I made up my mind to learn my lines
G+G D MajorD
And try to play the part
G+G D MajorD
But part of me is in Tennessee
A augmentedA
And deep down in my heart
D MajorD A augmentedA
I miss my Smokey Mountain home
G+G D MajorD
And I miss your lovin too
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
And it's deep inside of me
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
And it's always going to be
G+G D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
Cause this ain't tennessee
D MajorD
And she ain't you
