Skip chords and lyrics
Verse 1
(G major) Oh, (E flat major) (D major) (G major)
the sun goes down
and the moon shines bright
And it's fun dance time
on a Saturday night
The folks gather round
like bees in a hive
And the fiddle tune's up
to play the Tenness (A major) ee jive
(G major) And I'm (A minor) gone, (A major) (A minor) gone, (G major) gone, gone
till (C major) the break of (G major) day
It's (D major) the Tennessee jive
and they (G major) play it in a (D major) real (G major) gone way (C major)
(G major) (C major)
(G major) (C major) (D major) (A minor) (D major)
(A minor) (G major)
Dance the Tennessee Chive
and you'll ask for more
With your bare feet pickin' up
splinters on the floor
Your pants rolled up
and you're truckin' on down
With a high -tone gal (D major) in the (G major) calico gown
And I'm (A minor) gone till (C major) (G major) the break of day
It's the Tenness (D major) ee Chive
and they (C major) play it in a (D major) real (A minor) gone
(G major) way (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) (E flat major) (G major) (D major)
(G major)
Oh, you grab a little gal
and you circle like a top
And you jump across the floor
with a skip and a hop
You gotta be sharp,
you gotta look alive
Cause the joint's really jumpin'
to the Tennessee Jive
And I'm (A minor) gone till (C major) (G major) the (C major) break (G major) of day (A minor) (G major)
It's the (D major) Tennessee Jive,
and they (G major) play it in (D major) a real (G major) gone
way (C major) (G major)
(D major) (A minor) (D major)
(A minor) (G major)
Well, if you want to be happy
and glad you're alive
Take off your shoes
and do the Tennessee Jive
Feelin' kinda (D major) low (G major) and gonna get a treat
Just a -slippin' and a -slidin'
to a hillbilly beat
And I'm (C major) gone, (G major) (A minor) gone, gone, (C major) gone
(G major) till the break of day
It's (D major) the Tennessee Jive
and they (G major) play (D major) it in a real gone (G major) way
Tennessee Jive
