Key of G

[VERSE]  I was [G] dancin’ with my darlin’ to the  [G7] Tennessee [C] Waltz,   when an [G] old friend I [Em] happened to [Am] see. [D7].
I [G] introduced him to my loved one and 
[G7] while they were [C] dancin’  – my [G] friend stole my [C] sweetheart from [G] me.
[CHORUS]  I [G] remember the [G7] night and the [C] Tennessee [G] Waltz.  Now I [G] know just how [Em] much I have [Am] lost. [D7]
Yes, I [G] lost my little darlin’ the [G7] night they were [C] playing
the [G] beautiful [C] Tennessee [G] Waltz
[VERSE]  She goes [G] dancin’ in the darkness to the  [G7] Tennessee [C] Waltz, and I [G] feel like I’m [Em] falling [Am] apart.  [D7]
And it’s [G] stronger than my drinking;   it’s [G7] deeper than [C] sorrow.  This [G] darkness she [C| left in my [G] heart
[CHORUS]  Now I [G] wonder how a [G7] dance like the [C] Tennessee [G] Waltz,   could have [G] broken my [Em] heart so [Am] complete. [D7]    Well I [G] can’t blame my darlin, and [G7] who could help [C] falling,   in [G] love with my [C] darling so [G] sweet.

I [G] introduced him to my loved one and  [G7] while they were [C] dancin’  – my [G] friend stole my [C] sweetheart from [G] me.
[CHORUS] Well it [G] must be the [G7] fault of the [C] Tennessee [G] Waltz. Wish I’d [G] known just how [Em] much it would [Am] cost. [D7]
But I [G] didn’t see it comin’ – it’s all [G7] over but [C] crying.   Blame it [G] all on the [C] Tennessee [G] Waltz.
[REPEAT MAIN CHORUS]  I [G] remember the [G7] night and the [C] Tennessee [G] Waltz.  Now I [G] know just how [Em] much I have [Am] lost. [D7]
