Tennessee

She was always supposed to be the one

Picking daisies in that Nashville summer sun

Oh I got wasted way too quick

Now I'm broke and she's my fix

And I loved her but I had to let her go

So I left my girl in Tennessee

Cuz she was never gonna walk away from me

Now all I got is a memory

And oh sweet Lord it's killing me

For most it's a bottle

A smoke or a lotto

But it was her for me

So I left her all alone with the ghost of me

Way back in Tennessee

Every now and then I count the cost

Does my freedom bring me more than what I lost?

Miss the way she held me soft like snow

Oh I loved her but I had to let her go

So I left my girl in Tennessee

Cuz she was never gonna walk away from me

Now all I got is a memory

And oh sweet Lord it's killing me

For most it's a bottle

A smoke or a lotto

But it was her for me

So I left her all alone with the ghost of me

Way back in Tennessee

I let her go

My high turned low

She had me weak

And I had to set me free

For most it's a bottle

A smoke or a lotto

But it was her for me

So I left her all alone with the ghost of me

Way back in Tennessee
