Connie Francis – The Tennessee Waltz (Guitar)

E                                   E7        A 
I was dancin' with my darlin to the Tennessee Waltz 

        E            C#m         F#   B 
When an old friend I happened to see. 

       E                           E7              A 
I introduced him to my darlin' and while they were dancin' 

   E               A          B    E 
my friend stole my sweetheart from me. 

E              E7            A         E 
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz 

                      C#m         F#   B 
cause I know just how much I have lost. 

      E                          E7              A 
Yes I lost my little darlin' the night they were playin' 

     E         A     B   E  
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz. 

E                                 E7        A 
Now I wonder how a dance like the Tennessee Waltz 

           E         C#m         F#   B 
Could have broken my heart so complete. 

        E                              E7             A 
Well, I couldn't blame my darlin', and who could help fallin' 

   E            A       B  E 
In love with my darlin' so sweet. 

E                   E7           A         E 
Well it must be the fault of the Tennessee Waltz   

                        C#m           F#   B 
Wish I'd known just how much it would cost.               

      E                              E7           A 
But I didn't see it comin', it's all over but the cryin',   

         E          A     B   E 
Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz. 

E                                        E7        A 
He goes dancin' with the darkness to the Tennessee Waltz,

      E             C#m      F#    B 
and I feel like I'm falling apart. 

         E                            E7          A  
and it's stronger than drink and it's deeper than sorrow, 

     E           A       B  E   
this darkness he left in my heart.
