If I had my way
F# B F# C#m F#
I'd leave here today and move in a hurry
F#7 B
I know I feel loose
B7 E E/D# E/C# E/B F#7 B
I Know I could lose these Tennessee Blues
F#7 B F# B
Find me a spot on some mountain top
F# C#m F#
With lakes all around me
F#7 B F# B
Vallies and streams birds in the trees
F# C#m F#
Lakes that surround me
F#7 B B7
C# place I feel loose
E E/D# E/C# E/B F#7 B
C# place I could lose these Tennessee Blues
F#7 B F# B
C# place to forget all my regrets
F# C#m F#
And keep just the good times
F#7 B F# B
C# place I could sleep with nothing but peace
F# C#m F#
And Feel free at all times
F#7 B
I know I feel loose
B7 E E/D# E/C# E/B F#7 B
Someplace I could lose these Tennessee Blues
SOLO

And lakes that surround me
