[Verse 1]
Oh my, but you have a pretty face
You favor a girl that I knew
I imagine that she's still in Tennessee
And by God, I should be there too
I've a sadness too sad to be true
[Verse 2]
But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear
The same way that I'm leaving you
Because love is mainly just memories
And everyone's got them a few
So when I'm gone I'll be glad to love you
[Chorus]
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There's no telling who will be there
[Verse 3]
When I leave it'll be like I found you love
Descending Victorian stairs
I'm feeling like one of your photographs
Trapped while I'm putting on airs
And getting even by asking who cares
[Chorus]
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There's no telling who will be there
[Verse 4]
So have all of your passionate violins
Play a tune for a Tennessee kid
Who's feeling like leaving another town
With no place to go, if he did
'Cause they'll catch you wherever you're hid
[Chorus]
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
You're literally waltzing on air
At the brand new Tennessee waltz
There's no telling who will be there
