Tom: C
C C/Bb Am7 Am7/F#
I talked to your sister last night on the telephone
C C/Bb Am7 F
You know she always thought pretty well of me
C C/Bb Am7 Am7/F#
She said your weddin’ went fine, you were up in New York on your honeymoon
C C/Bb Am F
And tonight I'm down in Tennessee
[Verse 2]
C C/Bb Am7 Am7/F#
I got that letter you wrote, it tore me up
C C/Bb Am7 F
But I don’t have anyone to blame but me
C C/Bb Am7 Am7/F#
I had it all for a while but like everything else, I messed it up
C C/Bb Am7 F
And tonight I’m down in Tennessee
[Chorus]
F Dm F
It’s blue tonight and gettin’ bluer
C G F C
But I’m in the state that I deserve to be
F G Am F C
Without you I just can’t see, things ever lookin’ up for me-e-e-e
C Bb Am F C
I’m so down in Tennessee
C C/Bb Am7 Am7/F#
[Verse 3]
C C/Bb Am7 Am7/F#
I hope you’re happy with him, he’s a lucky man
C C/Bb Am7 F
I hope he gives you that home and family
C C/Bb Am7 Am7/F#
I wanna say if by chance you are ever this a-way, look me up
C C/Bb Am F
Cause I’ll be down in Tennessee
[Chorus]
F Dm F
It’s blue tonight and gettin’ bluer
C G F C
But I’m in the state that I deserve to be
F G Am F C
Without you I just can’t see, things ever lookin’ up for me-e-e-e
C Bb Am F C
I’m so down in Tennessee
C Bb Am F C
I’m so down in Tennessee
C Bb Am F C
I’m gonna be down awhile in Tennessee
