 When an C#old friend I Bbmhappened to Ebsee. G# 
 I introcduced him to my darlin' and C#7while they were F#dancin'
 my C#friend stole my G#sweetheart from C#me.
 I C#remember the C#7night and the F#Tennessee C#Waltz
 'cause I know just how Bbmmuch I have Eblost G# 
 Yes I C#lost my little darlin' the C#7night they were F#playin'
 That C#beautiful G#Tennessee C#Waltz

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
