Long Way to Tennessee

      D5                            G5 
I'm a long, long way from where I want to be
       D5                           G5 
In the Arizona prison they've got me
      D5                     G5       E5
And until they set me free, oh, oh, me
       A5                  D5             G5
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee.

Oh, my mouth is dry with dust my throat is raw
How I miss those big green trees in Arkansas
On the way to where I'll be when they set me free
But it's a long, long way from here to Tennessee.

  C5          D5        C5         D5                G5  G5 
A long, long way from me to the girl that I love so
C5        D5        C5      D5            G5  G5
Will she wait for me, oh Lord I don't know

I know that I've done wrong but friends I've paid the price
Back in Tennessee I left sweet paradise.
But until they set me free, oh, oh, me
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee.
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee...
