I found this song at uwp.edu ../lyrics/f/folk/ posted by ?
In his lyric compilation Dean Engelhardt writes that
Leonard Cohen performed it at some concerts (does anybody know where and
when?).
I will put this song to nevada ../c/leonard_cohen
But before this song goes to nevada can somebody please add the songwriter,
a record where it's played and perhaps some melody.
That would be very great. Thank You very much, to all of You.
TENNESSEE WALTZ
By ?
(intro) |D|GDA|D|D|
(VERSE 1)
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) I was dancin' with my darlin to the Tennessee Waltz
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) E (022100@1) A (x02220@1) When an old friend I happened to see.
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) I introduced him to my darlin' and while they were dancin'
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) D (xx0232@1) my friend stole my sweetheart from me.
(CHORUS 1)
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Bm (x24432@1) E (022100@1) A (x02220@1) 'cause I know just how much I have lost
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) Yes I lost my little darlin' the night they were playin'
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1)A (x02220@1) D (xx0232@1) That beautiful Tennessee Waltz
(solo, same as a verse)
(CHORUS 1) or CHORUS 1 alone again
(VERSE 2)
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) Now I wonder how a dance like the Tennessee Waltze
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) E (022100@1) A (x02220@1) Could have broken my heart so complete
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) Well I couldn't blame my darlin', and who could help fallin'
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1)D (xx0232@1) In love with my darlin' so sweet
(CHORUS 2)
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) Well it must be the fault of the Tennessee Waltz
Bm (x24432@1) E (022100@1) A (x02220@1) Wish I'd known just how much it would cost
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) But I didn't see it commin', it's all over but the cryin'
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1)A (x02220@1) D (xx0232@1) Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz
(solo, same as a verse)
(CHORUS 2)
New second verse written by Cohen
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) She goes dancin' with the darkness to the Tennessee Waltz
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) E (022100@1) A (x02220@1) and I feel like I'm falling apart
D (xx0232@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) and it's stronger than drink and it's deeper than sorrow
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1)A (x02220@1)D (xx0232@1)
this darkness she left in my heart
I remember the night ... (CHORUS 1)
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz
