Well it's a  sweet dream
                       G#
That keeps me close to you dear

And it's a sad thing
                     C#
That we're apart I'm blue dear

And there are times now
   C#7       F#     F#/E   D#m
I thank the heavens up     above
     F#           G#         C#
When I'm with the one that I love
C#
Now there are diamonds
                       G#
That some may long to  see

And they may shine
                          C#
But not bright enough for me
                   C#
I wouldn't take no
C#7      F#     F#/E     D#m
The whole world dipped in gold
      F#            G#        C#
For a night with my Tennessee Rose
Bbm                      C#
Take this love that I am giving
         Bbm        F#      G#
For it's truly the lasting kind
    Bbm                C#
The gift I hold is believing
     Bbm      G#        C#
That you will always be mine
