I was dancing with my darlin’
C
to the Tennessee Waltz
G D7
When an old friend I happened to see
G
Introduced him to my darlin’
C
and while they were dancing
G D7 G
My friend stole my sweetheart from me.
G B7 C G
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
D7
‘Cause I know just how much I have lost
G
Yes I lost my little darlin’
C
The night they were playing
G D7 G
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz.

I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
‘Cause I know just how much I have lost
Yes I lost my little darlin’
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
She comes dancing through the darkness
To the Tennessee Waltz
And I feel like I’m falling apart
And it’s stronger than drink
And it’s deeper than sorrow
This darkness she’s left in my heart.
I’ll remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
‘Cause I know just how much I have lost
Yes I lost my little darlin’
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
G D7 G
Beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
