Back To Tennessee easy guitar chords by
Carl Perkins
Carl Perkins

N/A
Verse 1
G
D

Now I feel it calling me
G

back to Tennessee

Long ago I didn't know
D

what home did mean to me

Just glad that's all I had,

the world my destiny
G

I was searching in vain

just to find peace of mind
C

How could I find
Cm

what I'd left there behind
D

Now I hear them calling me

back to Tennessee
G

I see fields of gold and corn
D

And all the hills so green

I see peaceful waters flowing,
G

going out to sea

Oh, I hear my old mama pray
C
Cm

I think I know what my mama will say
D

Come on homeboy, come back to me

Back to Tennessee
G
Ab

I hear mocking birds
Eb

singing their lonesome songs

It starts my whole heart dreaming
Ab

I've been gone too long

And that welcome home sign

over the door
Db

Says come on home boy,
Dbm

come home once more
Eb

Come on back where you ought to be,

back to Tennessee
Ab

And no more roaming,

no more rambling,
Eb

that's said and done

Let me live the rest of my life
Ab

under the good old Tennessee sun

And when I die and then when I'm old
Db
Dbm

Lay me to rest where I wanna go
Eb

Let me be where I wanna be

Back to Tennessee
Ab

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
