Key: D major

Verse 1
Db Db 
 
B B 
 
Along about 1825 I left
Tennessee very much alive
Db Db 
 
I never would have got through the
Arkansas mud
If I hadn't been a -ridin' on the
Ab Ab 
 
Db Db 
 
Tennessee studs
I had some trouble with
my sweetheart's paw
B B 
 
And one of her brothers was a bad outlaw
Db Db 
 
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
Gb Gb 
 
The color of the sun and
A A 
 
Ab Ab 
 
his eyes were green
Db Db 
 
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a horse like the
Tennessee
stud
We drifted on down into no man's land
B B 
 
We crossed that river called the
Rio
Grande
Db Db 
 
I raced my horse with a
Spaniard's foal, till I got me
a skin full of silver and gold
Me and a gambler, we couldn't agree,
B B 
 
we got in a fight over
Tennessee
Db Db 
 
We jerked our gun, then he fell with a thud,
and I got away on the
Tennessee stud
The
Tennessee stud was long and lean,
Gb Gb 
 
A A 
 
Ab Ab 
 
the color of the sun in his eyes were green
Db Db 
 
He had my nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a horse like the
Tennessee
Stud I got just as lonesome as
a man can be
B B 
 
Dreamin' of my girl in
Tennessee
The
Db Db 
 
Tennessee
Stud's green eyes turned blue
Cause he was a -dreamin' of
Ab Ab 
 
Db Db 
 
Ab Ab 
 
a sweetheart, too
Db Db 
 
We loped right back across
Arkansas
B B 
 
I whooped her brother and
I whooped her paw
Db Db 
 
I found that girl with the golden hair
And she was a -ridin' on the
Tennessee mare
The
B B 
 
Db Db 
 
Tennessee stud was long and lean
Gb Gb 
 
Ab Ab 
 
The color of the sun in his eyes were green
Db Db 
 
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a horse like the
Tennessee
Stub
Stare up to stare up and side by side
B B 
 
We crossed the mountains and
the valleys wide
Db Db 
 
We came to
Big
Muddy then we forded the flood
On the
Tennessee mare and the
Tennessee
Stub
A pretty little baby on the cabin floor
B B 
 
A little horse caught playin' around the door
Db Db 
 
I loved that girl with the golden hair
And the
Tennessee stud loves a
Tennessee man
The
B B 
 
Db Db 
 
Tennessee stud was long and lean
Gb Gb 
 
A A 
 
Ab Ab 
 
The color of the sun in his eyes was green
Db Db 
 
He had the nerve and he had the blood
And there never was a horse like the
Ab Ab 
 
Db Db 
 
Tennessee stud
