V#1 
  
G 
Along about eighteen twenty five 
  F 
I left Tennessee very much alive 
      G 
And I never would got through the Arkansas mud 
                               D7        G 
If I hadn't been a-riding that Tennessee stud 

V#2 

I had me some trouble with my sweetheart's Paw 
    F  
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw 
       G           
I sent her a letter by my Uncle Fud 
                        D7        G 
Then I rode away on the Tennessee stud 
     

                       F        G 
The Tennessee Stud was long and mean 
    C                        A7        D7 
The color of the sun and his eyes were green 
G                    F          G 
He had the nerve and he had the blood  
                                     D7        G 
And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud 

V#3 

We drifted on down into no man's land  
    F 
And crossed that river called the Rio Grande 
  G 
I raced my hoss with a Spaniard's foal 
                             D7         G 
Till I got me a skin full of silver and gold 

V#4 

Me and the gambler we couldn't agree 
   F 
We got in a fight over Tennessee 
   G 
We jerked our guns and he fell with a thud 
                      D7        G 
And I got away on the Tennessee stud 

V#5 

Well I got just as lonesome as a man could be 
  F 
A-dreaming of my girl in Tennessee 
    G 
The Tennessee Stud's green eyes turned blue 
                               D7         G    
Cause he was dreaming bout his sweetheart too 

V#6 

We loped right back across Arkansas 
  F 
I whooped her brother and I whooped her Paw 
     G 
When I found that girl with the golden hair 
                      D7        G 
She was a-riding that Tennessee mare  

Repeat Chorus: 

V#7 

Stirrup to stirrup and side by side 
   F  
We crossed them mountains and the valleys wide 
   G 
We came to big muddy and then we forded a flood 
                              D7        G 
On the Tennessee Mare and the Tennessee stud 

V#8 

There's a pretty little girl on the cabin floor 
      F   
And a little horse colt laying on the floor 
  G 
I love that girl with the golden hair 
                                 D7        G  
And the Tennessee stud loves the Tennessee mare 

Repeat Chorus and end:
