Verse 1
C
Gm
C
A Long About 18 and 25
the Arkansas mud
If I hadn't been a -ridin'
G
C
on the Tennessee stud
I had some trouble with
my sweetheart's pa
and I rode away on the Tennessee stud
The Tennessee stud was long and lean,
Ab
G
his eyes were green
and there never was a horse like
the Tennessee stud
One day I was riding in a beautiful land,
a hoop and a yell
And away we went like
a bat out a well
I circled our camp for a time or two
a Tennessee hoss can do
get my blood
Cause I was a -ridin'
G
C
on the Tennessee stuff
We drifted on down into
no man's land
Till I got me a skin full of silver and gold
Me and a gambler, we couldn't agree
And I got away on the Tennessee stud
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
F
Ab
G
The color of the sun in his eyes were green
And I never was a hoss like
the Tennessee Stud
Well, I got as lonesome as a man can be
eyes turned blue
Cause he was a -dreamin'
of a sweetheart too
We loped right on across Arkansas
I whooped her paw
the golden hair
And she was a -ridin'
on a Tennessee mare
Stare up to stare up and
side by side
the valleys wide
and we forded the flood
On the Tennessee mare and
the Tennessee stud
Pretty little baby on the cabin floor
Bb
A little horse cold layin' round the door
And the Tennessee stud
loved the Tennessee mare.
The Tennessee stud was long and lean,
Ab
G
eyes were green.
And there never was a horse
Gm
C
Gm
C
like the Tennessee stud.
