G D A7 D

D
Oh my, but you have a pretty face,
  G          D
you favor I girl that I knew
  G             D
I imagine that she's back in Tennessee,
    A           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
in same way that I'm leaving you
    G          D
Because love is mainly just memories, you see,
  A          D
and everyone's got him a few;
             A7      D
so when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you

    G     D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz,
               A
you're literally waltzing on air
    G     D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz,
          A7     D
there's no telling who will be there

    D
When I leave it will be like I found you love,
 G         D
descending Victorian stairs
    G              D
And I'm feeling like one of your old photographs, girl,
     A              D
where I'm trapped while I'm putting on airs;
      A7         D
so I'll get even by saying "who cares"?

    G     D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz,
               A
you're literally waltzing on air
    G     D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz,
            A7     D
there's just no telling who will be there


  D
So have all of your passionate violins,
    G          D
play a tune for a Tennessee kid
   G           D
Who's feeling like leaving another town,
     A          D
but with no place to go if he did;
       A7            D
cause they'll catch you wherever you're hid

    G     D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz,
               A
you're literally waltzing on air
    G     D
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz,
            A7     D
there's just no telling who will be there

D G D G D A D A7 D
