 I was Bbdancin' with my darlin to the Bb7Tennessee EbWaltz
 When an Bbold friend I Gmhappened to Csee. F 
 I introcduced him to my darlin' and Bb7while they were Ebdancin'
 my Bbfriend stole my Fsweetheart from Bbme.
 I Bbremember the Bb7night and the EbTennessee BbWaltz
 'cause I know just how Gmmuch I have Clost F 
 Yes I Bblost my little darlin' the Bb7night they were Ebplayin'
 That Bbbeautiful FTennessee BbWaltz

Now I wonder how a dance like the Tennessee Waltz

Could have broken my heart so complete

Well I couldn't blame my darlin', and who could help fallin'

In love with my darlin' so sweet

Well it must be the fault of the Tennessee Waltz

Wish I'd known just how much it would cost

But I didn't see it commin', it's all over but the cryin'

Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz

She goes dancin' with 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 left in my heart
