I was Cdancin' with my darlin to the C7Tennessee FWaltz

When an Cold friend I Amhappened to Dsee. G

I introcduced him to my darlin' and C7while they were Fdancin'

my Cfriend stole my Gsweetheart from Cme.

I Cremember the C7night and the FTennessee CWaltz

'cause I know just how Ammuch I have Dlost G

Yes I Clost my little darlin' the C7night they were Fplayin'

That Cbeautiful GTennessee CWaltz

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
