[G]
You always said someday you'd go to live [C] in Southern [G]
California
And [D] me I'd stay right here [G] in Tennessee
You always talked about the better days [C] in Southern [G]
California
But [D] if you'll stay in Tennessee I promise there'll be better [G] days with me
[Em] [D] It's not that I don't love you but I hear the [G] call from Southern [D] California
There's [A] something I can't find [D] in Tennessee
Silver screens and limousines they wait for me [G] in [D] Southern California
[A] Though you've been so good to me the time has come you'll have to [D] set me free
Tomorrow [F#] [G] when you leave you'll take my heart [C] to Southern [G] California
But
[D] just remember I'll be here to keep your heart with me in [G] Tennessee

[A#m] [Cm] [A#m] [G#]
Well it's been five years and I guess I've [C#] cried a million tears
[G#]
Looking out the window of this little room right over that flashing neon [D#] sign that says, Bar
It's almost midnight and time to [G#] go downstairs and go to work
[E] I wonder how he's doing [F#m] in [E] Tennessee
[A] Well here I sit by the window of this big old [D] lonely mansion
[A] Looking out over the Smokies and owning everything I can see
Oh I guess by [E] now she's found what she was looking for
And as I look at this old faded photograph of the [A] girl that I still love
I wonder if she ever thinks of me
But the weather's good [D] in Southern [A] California
I
[F#]
followed you [B] to Texas
[C#] I followed [F#] you to Utah
We didn't [B] find it there so [C#] we moved on
[G#m] [C#] [F#] I went with you [B] to Alabama
[C#] Things looked [F#] good
We didn't [B] find it there so [C#] we moved on
I know [F#] you're tired [B] of following
[C#] My elusive [F#] dreams and [B] schemes
Are their [F#] only freedom thing
[C#] My [F#] elusive dreams
You had my child [B] in Memphis
[C#] Then I heard of work [F#] in Nashville
We didn't find [B] it there so [C#] we moved on
[G#m] To [C#] [F#] a small farm [B] in Nebraska
To [C#] a gold mine [F#] in Alaska
We didn't find [B] it there so [C#] we moved on
[D] [Em]
[D] [G] And now we've left [C] Alaska
[D] Because there [G] was no gold mine
But this time [C] only two of us [D] moved on
[G] [C] And now all we have is each other
[D] And just a little [G] memory to cling to
And still I [C] won't let you go [D] on alone
[E] I [D] know [G] you're tired [C] of following
[D] My elusive [G] dreams and [C] schemes
Are their [G] only freedom thing
[D] My [G] elusive dreams
