I found this song at uwp.edu ../lyrics/f/folk/ posted by ?

In his lyric compilation Dean Engelhardt writes that

Leonard Cohen performed it at some concerts (does anybody know where and

when?).

I will put this song to nevada ../c/leonard_cohen

But before this song goes to nevada can somebody please add the songwriter,

a record where it's played and perhaps some melody.

That would be very great. Thank You very much, to all of You.

TENNESSEE WALTZ

By ?

(intro) |D|GDA|D|D|

(VERSE 1)

D D7 G

I was dancin' with my darlin to the Tennessee Waltz

D Bm E A

When an old friend I happened to see.

D D7 G

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

D G D A D

my friend stole my sweetheart from me.

(CHORUS 1)

D D7 G D

I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz

Bm E A

'cause I know just how much I have lost

D D7 G

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

D G D A D

That beautiful Tennessee Waltz

(solo, same as a verse)

(CHORUS 1) or CHORUS 1 alone again

(VERSE 2)

D D7 G

Now I wonder how a dance like the Tennessee Waltze

D Bm E A

Could have broken my heart so complete

D D7 G

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

D G D A D

In love with my darlin' so sweet

(CHORUS 2)

D D7 G D

Well it must be the fault of the Tennessee Waltz

Bm E A

Wish I'd known just how much it would cost

D D7 G

But I didn't see it commin', it's all over but the cryin'

D G D A D

Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz

(solo, same as a verse)

(CHORUS 2)

New second verse written by Cohen

D D7 G

She goes dancin' with the darkness to the Tennessee Waltz

D Bm E A

and I feel like I'm falling apart

D D7 G

and it's stronger than drink and it's deeper than sorrow

D G D A D

this darkness she left in my heart

I remember the night ... (CHORUS 1)

That beautiful Tennessee Waltz
