Introdução: B F#7 
 
       B                B7+ 
I was waltzing with my darling 
       B7         E 
To the Tennessee Waltz 
        B             Ab7        F#7 
When an old friend I happened to see 
       B              B7+ 
I introduce him to my darling 
      B7             E 
And while they were dancing 
     B               F#7           B    F#7 
My friend stole my sweetheart from me 
 
     B          F#/Bb         E         B 
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz 
                     Ab7         F#7 
Now I know just how much I have lost 
 
       B              B7+ 
Yes I lost my little darling 
     B7               E 
The night they were playing 
     B         F#7       B 
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz 
               F#7       E    F#7    B      
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
