Brand New Tennessee Waltz

[Verse 1]
Oh my, but you have a pretty face
You favor a girl I once knew
I imagine that she's still in Tennessee
And by God, I should be there, too
I've a sadness too sad to be true

[Verse 2]
But I left Tennessee in a hurried daze
The same way that I'm leaving you
Because love is just mainly memories
And everyone's got them a few
So when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you

[Chorus]
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzin' on air
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz
There's no tellin' who will be there

[Verse 3]
When I leave it'll be like I found you, love
Descendin' Victorian stairs
I'm feelin' like one of your photographs
Trapped while I'm puttin' on airs
And gettin' even by askin' "Who cares?"

[Chorus]
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzin' on air
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz
There's no tellin' who will be there

[Verse 4]
So have all of your passionate violins
Play a tune for a Tennessee kid
Who's feelin' like leavin' 'nother town
With no place to go if he did
'Cause they catch you wherever you hid

[Chorus]
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz
You're literally waltzin' on air
At the brand new Tennessee Waltz
There's no tellin' who will be there
