[Verse 1]
G C D7 G
Well I left home at a crack of dawn just about a year ago
G C D7 G
I thumbed my way cross the USA and I learned a lot I didn't know
G C D7 G
The Promised Land that I thought I'd find was always just ahead of me
G C D7 G
Until one day when I realized I left it back in Tennessee
[Chorus]
G D7
And that's why I'm going back to my Tennessee girl
C G
And a Tennessee way of life
D7
And I'm gonna ask my Tennessee girl
C G
To be my Tennessee wife
[Verse 2]
G C D7 G
Tonight I slept in a hobo camp workin' out like dog by day
G C D7 G
I never got enough to get ahead just enough to make my way
G C D7 G
Cold and tired when the evening come all I had to ease my mind
G C D7 G
Was thinkin' bout the place I started from and the girl that I left behind
[Chorus]
G D7
And that's why I'm going back to my Tennessee girl
C G
And a Tennessee way of life
D7
And I'm gonna ask my Tennessee girl
C G
To be my Tennessee wife
[Verse 3]
G C D7 G
There ain't no place that I been at all that I was gonna settle in
G C D7 G
And every town that I travel through made me wanna go home again
G C D7 G
The green green grass and the rollin' hills seem to keep a callin' me
G C D7 G
Back to the place where I was born and the girl that I long to see
[Chorus]
G D7
And that's why I'm going back to my Tennessee girl
C G
And a Tennessee way of life
D7
And I'm gonna ask my Tennessee girl
C G
To be my Tennessee wife
