Verse 1:
Just when I [Ebm]thought I got him to fall in love with Tenne[Db]Tennessee

I put him [Gb]right back into her arms
I wasn't a [Ab]match for that kinda spark

She's from Texas, I can [Gb]tell by the way
He's two steppin' round the [Db]room
And judgin' by the smile that's [Ebm]written on his face
There's nothin' I can [Ab]do

Verse 2:
Well, I guess he for[Ebm]forgot about the smoky mountain rain[Db]rain
