If I had my way
C F C Gm C
I'd leave here today and move in a hurry
C7 F
I know I feel loose
F7 A# A#/A A#/G A#/F C7 F
I Know I could lose these Tennessee Blues
C7 F C F
Find me a spot on some mountain top
C Gm C
With lakes all around me
C7 F C F
Vallies and streams birds in the trees
C Gm C
Lakes that surround me
C7 F F7
G place I feel loose
A# A#/A A#/G A#/F C7 F
G place I could lose these Tennessee Blues
C7 F C F
G place to forget all my regrets
C Gm C
And keep just the good times
C7 F C F
G place I could sleep with nothing but peace
C Gm C
And Feel free at all times
C7 F
I know I feel loose
F7 A# A#/A A#/G A#/F C7 F
Someplace I could lose these Tennessee Blues
SOLO

Find me a spot on some mountain top

With vallies and streams and birds in the trees

And lakes that surround me

G place I feel loose
