Tennessee (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I left the west coast, watched the palm trees
Wave goodbye, it was a hard drive
Had to say goodbye to you
I stopped for some Coca-cola and some corn nuts too
I thought about turning back, I already missed you

Chorus:
If you need me, burn it up, bend the rules, leave right away
If you need me, take a four-lane headed my way
Take a bus, take a plane, take a car, take a train
Take a bike, hitch a ride, you decide
If you need me, you know where I’ll be, yeah
In Tennessee

Going through my boxes found a photograph,
Where you were sitting on a mule in Meixo, picture perfect point of view
And then a post card dropped from a book you gave me
On my birthday, and it hit me baby

Chorus
If you need me, burn it up, bend the rules, leave right away
If you need me, take a four-lane headed my way
Take a bus, take a plane, take a car, take a train
Take a bike, hitch a ride, you decide
If you need me, leave LA, we’ll take it day by day
All alone, here I am, by the phone, understand
It’s not too late, what are you waiting for
If you need me, you know where I’ll be, yeah
In Tennessee

It’s a Sunday morning, I awake, just another lonely day
I lie in bed and wonder how long it this gonna take
Then I think so myself, will I ever get a break
Or did I make a big mistake?

Well, I light the fire, I’ll draw the bubble bath, hey, you do the math
It’s just me, and I’m without you, what else could I do?

Repeat first chorus

S. Colvin – J. Leventhal

I got a cool head doin’ alright
But I been up here so long I was starving
For some hot spells, summer lights
Shinin’ on your back roads
Tennessee

Somebody hit me hard
Right in my own backyard
Somebody put a hope lock on my heart
Runnin’ down your back roads
Tennessee

Oh you got the banjos
And they play real slow
Not to me, not to me
I never heard such rock and roll
As on your back roads
Tennessee

Now I know you’re not to blame
But you know that you should have
told me
That I would never be the same
After riding down your back roads
Tennessee

Somebody held me tight
Somebody tried to fight
Somebody raced out in the night
Runnin’ down your back roads
Tennessee

Oh you kissed the soul of a rebel
In a Yankee girl
You got to me
I heard you callin’ ‘round the world
From your back roads
Tennessee

I saw somebody standin’
In a field with a crutch
Behind his rich southern daddy
With a Midas touch
They said be outta here by sundown
They said good luck
You might say I was the stranger
Who knew too much

Somebody took a hope lock from my heart
And threw it down your back roads
Tennessee

Oh you feel the north wind blow
That’s only me
I want to hear some rock and roll
On your back roads
Tennessee

I’m not the bad city girl
Come down to rape you
I’m not the hometown queen
Who wants to save you
I heard you callin’ to my soul
From your back roads
Tennessee

Tennessee (Letra)

Your dream can never earn enough
Ultimate nihilistic love

Tennessee nights just zip-code love
Always believe the comfort of strangers
Tennessee eyes graffiti once blue
Media sells a trace of hate

Our epitaph reads like your sin
Subvert, destroy, beat derelict

Tennessee nights just zip-code love
Commanche becomes as maggot
Tennessee eyes orange once blue
Media sells a trace of hate

His pain forgets her agony
His heart p-m-r-c
His heart p-m-r-c
The white man is disease
His heart p-m-r-c

Your dream can never earn enough
Ultimate nihilistic love
