[Verse 1]
B                                   E             B
You have heard and read about the state of Tennessee
B                              C#7             F#7
Down in the southern states is where I want to be
           B
Where the valleys are so green
          E               B
And the mountains are so tall
B
You will know just what I mean
  F#                       B
When you hear them say "y'all"


[Chorus]
       E
Tennessee (Tennessee)
                    B
I hear you calling me (I hear you calling me)
                                   F#             B
The home of Davey Crockett in the hills of Tennessee.

[Verse 2]
B                         E                    B
When I was a little boy around the folks back home
    B                         C#7                 F#7
My mother always said to me, "Jimmy, please don't roam"
 B                              E              B
Now that I have gone away, my heart is full of woe
 B                                  F#              B
When I think of mom and dad, that's where I want to go.


[Chorus]
       E
Tennessee (Tennessee)
                    B
I hear you calling me (I hear you calling me)
                                  F#             B
The home of Davey Crockett in the hills of Tennessee.

If ever I get back to that state Of Tennessee
B                              C#7         F#7
I tell you there'll be no more roaming for me
 B                            E               B
There lives a sweetheart who said she'd marry me
     B                          F#             B
As soon as I get back to that state of Tennessee


[Chorus]
       E
Tennessee (Tennessee)
                   B
I hear you calling me (I hear you calling me)

The home of Davey Crockett in the hills of Tennessee.
