Chords

E                    A       E
I see rocky mountains and great lakes

E                        B
Stood beneath a redwood tree

A          E            C#m     A
But wherever I go my heart aches

E      B                E
For a place called Tennessee

C#m   A  E    B
Oh come with me

        A               E

And the meth labs are divine

C#m   A  E    B
Oh I wanna be

        A               E
Where the sweet tobacco grows

        A               B
And is picked by poor Negros

        E
In Tennessee

E                    A       E
Oh it's a place where dueling banjos play

E                        B
And the mountain folk run free
A E C#m A Where all the children can spell k k k
E       B         E
But cannot spell Tennessee

C#m   A  E    B
Oh come with me

        A               E
Where every cheek is filled with chew

        A               B
And no one's never seen a Jew

C#m   A  E    B
Oh I wanna be

        A               E
Where the hotdogs are deep friend

        A               B
That's the reason Elvis died

        E
In Tennessee

C#m   A  E    B
Oh come with me

        A               E
Where the baptist preachers shout

        A               B
That if your gay you best get out

C#m   A  E    B
Oh I wanna be

        A               E
Where hospitality's the thing

        A               B
Just ask Martin Luther King

The BB king in Al Gore

I'm not saying it's a s*** hole

E      B                E
But they don't live there anymore

C#m   A  E    B
Oh I wanna see

        A               E
Mountain dew in every cup

        A               B
And all the dentists just gave up

C#m   A  E    B
Oh come with me

        A               E
On my fat bed pickup truck

        A               B
That's were the classy ladies F***

        A
In Tennessee

        E
Oh in Tennessee
