[Verse 1]
If I had my way
I'd leave here today
I'd leave in a hurry
I'd find me a place
Where I could stay
And not have to worry
[Chorus]
A place I could use
A place I could lose
My Tennessee blues
[Verse 2]
I'd find me a spot
On some mountaintop
With no one around me
Valleys and streams
And birds in the trees
And hills that surround me
[Chorus]
A place I could use
A place I could lose
My Tennessee blues
[Verse 3]
I'd try to forget
All my regrets
I'd leave just the good times
I'd wake and I'd sleep
Nothing but peace
Feel free at all times
[Chorus]
A place I could use
A place I could lose
The Tennessee blues
A place I could lose
The Tennessee blues
Tennessee Blues was written by Bill Monroe.
