{title:Goodbye to Tennessee}
A[C]fter fifteen years of m[Em]arriage, she l[F]eft him in Te[C]nnessee
[F]He found the rings on the [Dm]rabbit ears of the J[F]apanese T[C].V.
She s[F]wapped him in for a [Dm]brand new man, and he [F]felt like an old used [C]car
On a riverbank, a c[Em]hild on a log that d[F]rifted out too [C]far.
And it's [C]hey ho, [Em]hi ho, good[F]bye to Tennes[C]see
[F]I'm on my way to [Dm]Oregon where n[F]obody knows [C]me
I'm gonna b[F]uy a boat and [Dm]sail it out u[F]pon the drifting s[C]ea
I'm gonna [C]ride the swells like an [Em]old blue whale, and [F]look for the rest of [C]me
I'm gonna [C]ride the swells like an [Em]old blue whale, and [F]look for the rest of [C]me.
Outside of Tucumcare, a car drove by his truck
Two kids had just got married; God bless 'em, and good luck
His mind went back some fifteen years to a little white country church
It was a buckboard scene from out of a dream, Jesus how it hurt
And it [G]hurts when the one that you love goes down the [C]road
And at [G]first you will p[F]ray, "Oh Lord, this is too big a l[C]oad"
But if you [G]try, you will find there are so many other [C]lives
As there are [F]stars up in the s[G]ky.
And it's hey ho, hi ho, goodbye to Tennessee
I'm on my way to regon where nobody knows me
I'm gonna buy a boat and sail it out upon the drifting sea
I'm gonna ride the swells like an old blue whale, and look for the rest of me
I'm gonna ride the swells like an old blue whale, and look for the rest of me.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official REILLY AND MALONEY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
