The picking progression on this is fairly easy but the chord

fingerings I have come up with are difficult to maintain while

picking and singing. Hope this works. This is the recorded key

and as close as I could find it.

Cadd9 – X32013

C/A# - X10013

Am7/A - X02013

Am7/F# - 2X2013

Cadd9 C/A# Am7/A Am7/F#

I talked to your sister last night on the telephone

Cadd9 C/A# Am7 F

You know she always thought pretty well of me

Cadd9 C/A# Am7 Am7/F#

She said your weddin’ went fine, you were up in New York on your honeymoon

Cadd9 C/A# Am7/A F

And tonight I'm down in Tennessee

I got that letter you wrote, it tore me up

But I don’t have anyone to blame but me

I had it all for a while but like everything else, I messed it up

And that’s why I’m down in Tennessee

Chorus:

F Dm F

It’s blue tonight and gettin’ bluer

C 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

F C

I’m so down in Tennessee

I hope you’re happy with him, he’s a lucky man

I hope he gives you that home and family

I wanna say if by chance you are ever this a-way, look me up

Cause I’ll be down in Tennessee

Chorus

I’m so down in Tennessee

I’m gonna be down in Tennessee
