Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee

Milwaukee is where we were before we came here
G                               A      D
Working in a brewery making the finest beer
G                                     C                G
You came to me on a payday night said lets go to Tennessee
C              G                 D         G
So we drove to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opry

We were watching TV Ernest Tubb was singing loud
G                              A                  D
I said that's the man for me I love him theres no doubt
G                                C                  G

C                       G               D                G
If I can't get him I'll settle for that bluegrass Lester Flatt.
