        G 
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.
