 I was Edancin' with my darlin to the E7Tennessee AWaltz
 When an Eold friend I C#mhappened to F#see. B 
 I introcduced him to my darlin' and E7while they were Adancin'
 my Efriend stole my Bsweetheart from Eme.
 I Eremember the E7night and the ATennessee EWaltz
 'cause I know just how C#mmuch I have F#lost B 
 Yes I Elost my little darlin' the E7night they were Aplayin'
 That Ebeautiful BTennessee EWaltz

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
