 The Tennessee Waltz

 4 -4   5  6    4   -4  5  6

 I was dancing with my darling 

 7  -8   8  8  -8  7 -6

 to the Tennesse-e Waltz.

   7  7   7     6   5 -6  6    5 -4 (5 -5 5 -4)

When an old friend I happend to see.

  4 -4 4   5   6  4  -4  5    6 

 I introduced him to my loved one 

  7   -8    8 9 8 -8   7 6 -6

 and while they were dancing.

 My friend stole my sweetheart from me.

  7 -8 8  8   8   -8 

 I remember the night

 and the Tennessee Waltz.

  7   -8   8 9  8 -8   7 6 -6

 the night they were playing.
