Leavin' Tennessee
Robert Earl Keen
Capo 3
D G
The sun is settin’ on our time living here
D G
You’ve lost the will, I’ve lost the heart
D G
We should be leavin’ while the coast is still clear
D G
Cause we won’t make it after dawn
Em G D
We can cash in our chips and pack up the car
Em G A
Lock up the door and hide the key
Chorus:
D A
The only two things
G A
That mean anything to me
D
Are loving you
A
G
And leaving Tennessee
Silver eagles fly down streets paved with gold
Stars keep shining through the dawn
Anything you can dream of to hold
You can have here for a song
But there’s a song tonight that’s riding the wind
I'm the words and you’re the melody
Chorus
Bridge:
G
It’s just the two of us
D A
All out on our own
G A
That’s the way it ought to be
Chorus
We can call up all our friends on the phone
Tell them that someday we’ll return
First, we have to start to make a new home
We have one last bridge to burn
Lay your head down and we’ll drive
Through the night and in the morning light you’re gonna see
Chorus
