If I had my way
B E B F#m B
I'd leave here today and move in a hurry
B7 E
I know I feel loose
E7 A A/G# A/F# A/E B7 E
I Know I could lose these Tennessee Blues
B7 E B E
Find me a spot on some mountain top
B F#m B
With lakes all around me
B7 E B E
Vallies and streams birds in the trees
B F#m B
Lakes that surround me
B7 E E7
F# place I feel loose
A A/G# A/F# A/E B7 E
F# place I could lose these Tennessee Blues
B7 E B E
F# place to forget all my regrets
B F#m B
And keep just the good times
B7 E B E
F# place I could sleep with nothing but peace
B F#m B
And Feel free at all times
B7 E
I know I feel loose
E7 A A/G# A/F# A/E B7 E
Someplace I could lose these Tennessee Blues
SOLO
B7 E B E
Find me a spot on some mountain top

With vallies and streams and birds in the trees
B F#m B
And lakes that surround me
B7 E E7
F# place I feel loose
A A/G# A/F# A/E B7 E
F# place I could lose these Tennessee Blues
