TENNESSEE WALTZ
By: Redd Stewart & Pee Wee King
Roy Acuff
Key: G
3/4 time 

3 -3    -4  -5    3  -3 -4   -5
I was waltz-ing with my dar-ling  
7  -7  -8  -9  -8-7 7 6
to the Ten-nes-see Waltz 
  7  -7  7    -5   7  6   -5   -4 -3
When an old friend I hap-pened to see 
3  -3    -4  -5  3  -3   -4  -5
In-tro-duced him to my loved one  
7-7   -8   -9  -8-7   7    6
and while they were waltz-ing 
7    7      -5  6    -4   -2*   -3  3
My friend stole my sweet-heart from me 
7 -7 -8  -9  -8   -7
I re-mem-ber the night  
-8  -8  -7   7   6   -5
and the Ten-nes-see Waltz 
 6 -6*  7    6  -5   -4  6  -5   -3
now I know just how much I have lost  
 3 -3  -4  -5  3  -3  -4  -5
Yes I lost my lit-tle dar-lin  
7-7  -8    -9  -8-7   7   6
the night they were play-ing 
-6*  7   -5  6  -4  -2* -3    3
The beau-ti-ful Ten-nes-see Waltz 

REPEAT

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
