Capo 5

G F G F

G

Well it’s late at night on this old turnpike

F

And my heads spinning round and around

C C/B

It’s a long, long way from New York to Texas

Am D

I’ve been through a million towns

G

Well it’s get off the bus and get on the stage

F

The band and the boys and me

C C/B

Take me to Alabama, Mississippi, Montana

Am D

They don’t want me back in Tennessee

Chorus:

G F

Tennessee… how could you do this to me

C C/B

I gave you some of the best of my days

Am C D C

Ain’t no reason for me to stay

G F

Tennessee, you took the life out of me

C C/B

What little money I made

Am C/B C D Cm G

I either drank it up or I gave it away

I’ve tried so long to sell my songs

But Nashville wasn’t the place

All I got for my trouble was fighting mad

And the door slammed in my face

Chorus

Solo
