 I was Gdancin' with my darlin to the G7Tennessee CWaltz
 When an Gold friend I Emhappened to Asee. D 
 I introcduced him to my darlin' and G7while they were Cdancin'
 my Gfriend stole my Dsweetheart from Gme.
 I Gremember the G7night and the CTennessee GWaltz
 'cause I know just how Emmuch I have Alost D 
 Yes I Glost my little darlin' the G7night they were Cplayin'
 That Gbeautiful DTennessee GWaltz

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
