Oh Tennessee (Acoustic)

There’s a road runs through my little town

Through the blue ridge mountains westward bound

Woulda crawled on my hands and knees just to get to you

Where dreamers show up every day

Stickers on a guitar case

Not a damn thing but everything to lose

All the mamas say “Stay safe, and call me when you get there”

Oh, Tennessee what have you done

Was it your bullet or the gun

That took a life of love and chalked it up to a manhunt on the run

Oh, Tennessee what did you do

Did your lies abuse the truth

Take a simple kid, simple life to live, and fuck it up all for you

For a little while you were good to me

Even gave me a few good songs to sing

Everybody and their brother sang along

There’s a reason God makes mountains high

Ain't supposed to be an easy climb

You wake up nothing left to do but fall

Sex, booze, and self abuse just to name a few

Oh, Tennessee what have you done

Was it your bullet or the gun

That took a life of love and chalked it up to a manhunt on the run

Oh, Tennessee what did you do

Did your lies abuse the truth

Take a simple kid, simple life to live, and fuck it up all for you

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee

Oh Tennessee I gave everything I had for you

Oheeeee how dare you make this dream come true

Oh, Tennessee what have you done

Was it your bullet or the gun

That took a life of love and chalked it up to a manhunt on the run

Oh, Tennessee what did you do

Did your lies abuse the truth

Take a simple kid, simple life to live, and fucked it up all for you

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee

Oh Tennessee I gave everything I had for you

Oheee how dare you make this dream come true

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee

Oh Tennessee I gave everything I had for you

Oheeee how dare you make this dream come true

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee

Oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee, oh Tennessee
