Tennessee Bound

	  		
 

Intro:  E    B  (X3) 

E 
You may call me a rover I have rambled around 
                                B                E 
But I'll quit my roaming when I get to Nashville town 
E 
You may call me a liar or a hard-headed fool 
                                  B          E 
But I'm burning into Memphis on a flop-eared mule 


 

E 
I'm Tennessee bound bound bound 
E 
Bound bound bound 
              B         E 
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound 



E 
Come a rolling down the mountain there's a girl of fourteen 
                                        B         E 
She's the sweetest apple blossom just a hillbilly queen 
E 
I'm a coming round the mountain, don't you try to follow me 
                                B            E 
I'm a gonna be her daddy when I get to Tennessee 


(Chorus) 
E 
I'm Tennessee bound bound bound 
E

              B         E 
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound 

(Repeat Chorus) 


C#m           E

E 
Oh they say the stars in Texas surely shine shine shine 
                                          B        E 
But I'd trade them all to taste a drop of mulberry wine 
E 
I'm a coming through the desert if I have to I will crawl 
                                    B                E 
There's a paradise a waiting once I get through Arkansas 



E

              B         E 
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound
