Verse
C
The moon on the Cumberland River
G C
Went down In a cold bloody red
G
And you lay beside me and trembled
D
Like I don't belong in your bed
C
It's just like that night on Old Hickory
G C
And the motel way out on west end
G
You tried but your heart was in it
D G
Now you're fighting against it again
C
And the battle of Nashville is raging
G D
There's a troubling deep in my soul
C G
Here's my swan song for music city
D G
Cause my forces are out of control
C
I have hope against hope that you love me
G C
And my heart won't give up the fight
G
So the battle of Nashville continues
D G
And I pray you'll you're surrender tonight
Verse
C
Many times I've regrouped my emotions
G C
And smiles through the struggles and pain
G
And make believe I'm all together

Just like I'm doing again

But my little defeats keep on coming
C G
Cause you keep on holding the line
C G
I'm loosing ground with you daily
D G
And it's just a matter of time
C
And the battle of Nashville is raging
G D
There's a troubling deep in my soul
C G
Here's my swan song for music city

Cause my forces are out of control
C
I have hope against hope that you love me

And my heart won't give up the fight

So the battle of Nashville continues

And I pray you'll you're surrender tonight
