Tennessee 
Recorded by Mel Tillis
Written by Sonny Curtis

G
How I love to hear your old guitar
C
Singing through the rocks and trees
D7 G D7 G
Your banjo’s making honey with the rose buds and the bees
C G C
Your children whistling Dixie while they learn their ABC’s
G D7 G C G
And old time fiddlers fiddling golden memories

C
Don’t you love to see the dogwoods wear their bridal bell in spring
D7 G D7 G
The gentle virgin passion making love to evergreens
C G
While summer regal beauty waits there quietly in the wind
C G D7 G
With one magic breath she makes the flowers sing

C G C
But the Tennessee I love is in the people I’m part of
G A7 D7
Just down to earth good country folks they’re my Tennessee
G C G C
Oh Tennessee I love you and I’m proud to be part of you
G D7 G
I sure am glad God gave us Tennessee

C
As I look back down the winding road of life here’s what I see
D7 G D7 G
The dreams of all my yesterdays a total sum of me
C G C
From childhood trails and swimming holes to what I’ve grown to be
G D7 G C G
I owe the biggest part of me to Tennessee

C
So when my final day of sunshine takes me to my destiny
D7 G
Remember I enjoyed myself don’t fuss much over me
C G C
Just put me on my farm beneath my favorite willow tree
G D7 G C G
Right next to heaven here in good old Tennessee

Repeat #3 x2
