BRAND NEW TENNESSEE WALTZ
(Jesse Winchester)

Oh my, but you have a pretty face
You favor I girl that I knew
I imagine that she's back in Tennessee
And by God, I should be there too
I've a sadness too sad to be true

But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear
In same way that I'm leaving you
Because love is mainly just memories
And everyone's got him a few
So when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you

At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
There's no telling who will be there

When I leave it will be like I found you love
Descending Victorian stairs
And I'm feeling like one of your photographs, girl
Trapped while I'm putting on airs
Getting even by saying Who cares

At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
There's no telling who will be there

So have all your passionate violins
Play a tune for a Tennessee kid
Who's feeling like leaving another town
But with no place to go if he did
Cause they'll catch you wherever you're hid

At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the Brand New Tennessee Waltz
There's no telling who will be there

(Jesse Winchester)

      D
  Oh my but you have a pretty face
           G                       D
  You favor 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 I'm 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    

                   G          D
  CHORUS: 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

Trapped while I'm putting on airs
And getting even by asking who cares. 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. CHORUS

Thank you all for the responses! We can start tuning the fiddles now, and find the lone person around who DOESNT have a sore throat to start singing! LOL I love these two songs!
