F5                             F5 
I will see you in the morning 
            Bb5                F5 
When the moonlight leaves the trees 
            Bb5             F5 
But I will always feel the embers 
       C5              F5  
Of the flames in Tennessee 
F5                                     F5 
I was sleepin when they came knocking 
          Bb5             F5 
They said boy you better leave 
           Bb5           F5  
Said South Nashville is rockin 
         C5           F5 
And they can't get no relief 
F5                             F5 
So I run and put my pants on 
      Bb5            F5 
And I run to get my car 
        Bb5                F5 
But the flames they was a risin 
      C5            F5 
And I didn't get to far 
F5                                   F5 
There was a black man on the corner 
        Bb5            F5  
He said boy just turn away 
        Bb5              F5 
I got a gun here in my pocket 
           C5             F5 
And I will take your life away 
F5                                 F5 
So I showed the man your picture 
      Bb5            F5 
And I said we had a son 
          Bb5                F5 
And I was just up here from Texas 
         C5          F5   
I wasn't hurting anyone 
F5                           F5 
So I run out to the highway 
      Bb5               F5 
And I finally caught a ride 
          Bb5                F5 
With some white trash outta towner 
         C5              F5  
With his wife and kids inside 
F5                             F5 
So I sit here on the roadside 
      Bb5            F5 
And I talk to your machine 
Bb5                     F5 
I can see the flames a-risin 
     C5              F5 
Over Nashville Tennessee 
F5                                    F5 
Well don't go out  lookin on your TV 
           Bb5             F5 
They gonna keep this all  discreet 
          Bb5             F5   
They will never tell the secrets 
       C5              F5 
Of the flames in Tennessee 
F5                                 F5 
You know I hope she don't discover 
Bb5                            F5 
That this all was all just a lie 
          Bb5                    F5 
Buit If I don't get home to see her 
        C5                 F5 
Then my heart will surely die 
F5                             F5 
I will see you in the morning 
         Bb5                   F5 
When the moonlight leaves the trees 
           Bb5              F5 
But I will always feel the embers 
       C5         F5  
Of The flames in Tennessee 
     C5                              F5 
The night they burned down Nashville Tennessee
