If I had my way
G# C# G# D#m G#
I'd leave here today and move in a hurry
G#7 C#
I know I feel loose
C#7 F# F#/F F#/D# F#/C# G#7 C#
I Know I could lose these Tennessee Blues
G#7 C# G# C#
Find me a spot on some mountain top
G# D#m G#
With lakes all around me
G#7 C# G# C#
Vallies and streams birds in the trees
G# D#m G#
Lakes that surround me
G#7 C# C#7
D# place I feel loose
F# F#/F F#/D# F#/C# G#7 C#
D# place I could lose these Tennessee Blues
G#7 C# G# C#
D# place to forget all my regrets
G# D#m G#
And keep just the good times
G#7 C# G# C#
D# place I could sleep with nothing but peace
G# D#m G#
And Feel free at all times
G#7 C#
I know I feel loose
C#7 F# F#/F F#/D# F#/C# G#7 C#
Someplace I could lose these Tennessee Blues
SOLO

And lakes that surround me
