Mama, I guess you heard I got [G] married in Tennessee
[A] I got a blue-eyed girl who thinks the [D] world of me
[Bm] We [D] got a cabin in the [D] country [G] And a creek that rolls nearby
[A] And a dog that won't even bark at a [D]
firefly
Our clotheslines hang just outside our [G] back door
And [A] there's a tire that swings in the air ten [D] feet or more
There's a church I can't seem to find on Sunday [G]
morn
But I [A]
sure found a place that I [D] belong in
And we [G] wear blue jeans, [A] pick green beans, [D]
spend the summertime [G] naturally high
By chopping [A] wood, the next winter's [D] thawed
Saving our money [G] for the county fair
George Jones is supposed to [A] be there
We [G] got forty acres [A] of corn in the ground
[D] Tennessee taters we [G] sell by the pound
So proud as we [A] can be [G] to [A] live in [D] Tennessee
Mama, you and Dad have got to come stay with us [G]
sometime
I [A]
know you love that sweet little gal [D] of mine
You and her could talk about babies, make [G] some homemade apple pie
While me [A] and Dad could take a walk, maybe talk about old times
[D]
And we [G] wear blue jeans, [A] pick green [D] beans, spend the [G] summertime naturally high
By chopping [A] wood, the next winter's [D] thawed
Saving our money [G] for the county fair
George Jones is supposed to [A] be there
We [G] got forty acres [A] of corn in the ground
[D] Tennessee [G] taters we sell by the pound
Proud as we [A] can be [G] that we live [A] in [D] Tennessee
We [G] are proud as we [A] can be [G] to be [A] from [D] Tennessee
We [G] are proud as we [A] can be [G] to be from [D] Tennessee

[A] I got a blue-eyed girl who thinks the [D] world of me
