Verse 1
C
Gm
C
A Long About 18 and 25
Bb
I left Tennessee very much alive
C
I never would have got through
the Arkansas mud
If I hadn't been a -ridin'
G
C
on the Tennessee stud
I had some trouble with
my sweetheart's pa
Bb
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
C
I sent her a letter by my uncle's foot
and I rode away on the Tennessee stud
The Tennessee stud was long and lean,
F
the color of the sun and
Ab
G
his eyes were green
C
He had the nerve and he had the blood
and there never was a horse like
the Tennessee stud
One day I was riding in a beautiful land,
Bb
I ran smack into an Indian band
C
They jumped their nags with
a hoop and a yell
And away we went like
a bat out a well
I circled our camp for a time or two
a Tennessee hoss can do
C
The red -skinned boys couldn't
get my blood
Cause I was a -ridin'
G
C
on the Tennessee stuff
We drifted on down into
no man's land
Bb
Crossed a river called the Rio Grande
C
I raced my horse with a Spaniard's bow
Till I got me a skin full of silver and gold
Me and a gambler, we couldn't agree
Bb
We got in a fight over Tennessee
C
We jerked our guns, he fell with a thud
And I got away on the Tennessee stud
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
F
Ab
G
The color of the sun in his eyes were green
C
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And I never was a hoss like
the Tennessee Stud
Well, I got as lonesome as a man can be
Bb
A -dreamin' of my girl in Tennessee
C
The Tennessee Stud's green
eyes turned blue
Cause he was a -dreamin'
of a sweetheart too
We loped right on across Arkansas
Bb
I whooped her brother and
I whooped her paw
the golden hair
And she was a -ridin'
on a Tennessee mare
Stare up to stare up and
side by side
Bb
We crossed the mountains and
the valleys wide
and we forded the flood
On the Tennessee mare and
the Tennessee stud
Pretty little baby on the cabin floor
Bb
A little horse cold layin' round the door
C
I loved the girl with the golden hair,
And the Tennessee stud
loved the Tennessee mare.
The Tennessee stud was long and lean,
F
The color of the sun in his
Ab
G
eyes were green.
C
He had the nerve and he had the blood,
And there never was a horse
Gm
C
Gm
C
like the Tennessee stud.
