Like about 1825, [Am] I left Tennessee very much to lie.
[D] I never would have made it through the [Am] Arkansas mud if I hadn't been [G] riding on the [D] Tennessee stud.
I had some trouble with my sweetheart [C] Paul, one of her brother's little fat outlaws.
[D] I sent her a letter by my uncle [C] Bud and I rode [G] away on the [D] Tennessee stud.
The Tennessee stud went along and leaned, [C] the color of the sun [F] in his [A] eyes was green.
[D] He had the nerve and he had the blood [C] and I never was a hoss [G] like the [D] Tennessee stud.
We drifted on down into no man's land and [Am] we crossed the river called the Rio Grande.
[D] I raced my hoss with a [Am] panniered colt and I won me a [G] skin full of [D] silver and gold.
Me and a gambler couldn't agree, [Am] we got in a fight over Tennessee.
[D] We jerked our guns and he fell with a [Am] thud and I got [G] away on the [D] Tennessee stud.
Well I got as lonesome as a man can be, [Am] dreaming about my girl in [C] Tennessee.
[D] The Tennessee stud's green eyes turned [Am] blue, called the he was a [G] dream and the [D] sweetheart's smooth.
We loped across through Arkansas, [C] I whooped her brother and I whipped the call.
[D] I found that girl in the golden [Am] hair and she was [G] riding on [D] the Tennessee mare.
The Tennessee stud was long and [C] lean, the color of the [F] sun in his [A] eyes was green.
[D] He had the nerve and he had the [C] blood and I never was a [G] hoss like the [D] Tennessee stud.
Stirrup stirrup and side by side [C] we crossed the mountains and the valleys wide.
[D] We came to big muddy and we forded the [Am] flood on the Tennessee [G] mare and the [D] Tennessee stud.
And we got a little baby on the cabin [C] floor, a little hoss colt playing round the door.
[D] And I loved the girl with the golden [Am] hair and the Tennessee [G] stud loved the Tennessee [D] mare.
The Tennessee stud was long and lean, [C] the color of the sun [F] in his [A] eyes was green.
[D] He had the nerve and he had the blood [C] and I never was a hoss [G] like the Tennessee [D] stud.
