This is from Jesse Winchester's
first album (1970Bearsville/1994Stony Plain);
a classic produced by The Band's,
Robbie Robertson. As you might guess
it's in 3/4 time. You can find a remade
version on Let the Rough Side Drag
(1976 Bearsville).
The Brand New Tennessee Waltz
By Jesse Winchester
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/winchester_jesse/the_brand_new_tennessee_crd.html ]
D
Oh my but you have a pretty face
G D
You favour a girl that I knew
G D
I imagine that she's still in Tennessee
A7 D
And by God I should be there too
A7 D
I've a sadness too sad to be true
D
But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear
G D
The same way that Im leaving you
G D
Because love is mainly just memories
A7
And everyone's got him a few
A7 D
So when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you
CHORUS:
G D
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
(D) A7
You're literally waltzing on air
G D
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
(D) A7 D
There's no telling who will be there
When I leave it'll be like I found you love
Descending Victorian stairs
I'm feeling like one of your photographs
Trapped while I'm putting on airs
And getting even by asking who cares
Repeat Chorus
So have all of your passionate violins
Play a song for a Tennessee kid
Who's feeling like leaving another town
With no place to go if he did
'Cause they'll catch you wherever you're hid
Repeat Chorus
Break (one verse) end
