TENNESSEE STUD CHORDS

[Start]

[Verse]
B                                    
 Back about eighteen and twenty five
A                               
I left Tennessee very much alive
B                                                
I never would've made it through the Arkansas mud
                                         B   
If I hadn't been riding on the Tennessee stud
                         B              
Had some trouble with my sweetheart's Pa
A                                   
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
B                                
I wrote a letter to my uncle Spud
                       Gbsus4         B
And I rode away on the Tennessee stud 
              A                 B   
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean
                 E       Gb                 
The color of the sun and his eyes were green
B                                    
He had the nerve and he had the blood
                             Gbsus4        
There never was a horse like Tennessee stud
           Gbsus4                 
Drifted on down into no man's land
           A                          
Across the river called the Rio Grande
B                                       
 Raced my horse with the Spaniard's foe
                                        B   
'til I got me a skin full of silver and gold
B                                   
Me and the gambler we couldn't agree
   A                            
We got in a fight over Tennessee
B                                      
Pulled our guns and he fell with a thud
                     B             
And I rode away on a Tennessee stud
                                E   
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
                                       Gb   
The color of the sun and his eyes were green
B                                    
He had the nerve and he had the blood
                                 Gbsus4    B   
There was never a horse like the Tennessee stud


[Chorus]
Gbsus4 B                                  
       I rode right back across Arkansas
              A                           
I whipped her brother and I whipped her Pa
B                                       
 I found that girl with the golden hair
                              B   
She was riding on a Tennessee mare


[Verse]
B                                    
Pretty little baby on the cabin floor
A                                        Amaj7
Little horse colt playing round the door     
A B                                    
 I loved the girl with the golden hair
                                 B             
And the Tennessee stud loves the Tennessee mare
                                E   
The Tennessee stud was long and lean
                                       Gb   
The color of the sun and his eyes were green
B                                    
He had the nerve and he had the blood
                                 Gb            
There was never a horse like the Tennessee stud
