They say this last forever
                            C   G
That's just what I'm afraid of
                             C
I'll never dance like this again

                                Bb  C
She smiles like the Georgia summer
                                  C  G
She laughs like the sound of thunder
                            C
I  wanna dance like this again

                          Bb   C
I'm not the marrying kind
                           C   G
I've said a thousand times
                                     C
I've never danced like this before
                               Bb  C
She's got the prettiest shoes
                               C  G
And I love the way she moves
                              C
I wanna dance like this again

     F         G        C
I was free and far from home
     F        G      C
I was young and on my own
    F                 G
I was blind as I could be
        C                A
Thinking love was not for me
        F           G                    C
Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee

Lights came down and the room spun slow
G                  C
Started saying she had to go
C
Don't go baby, I didn't get your name
G          F                     C
She said, "Don't worry. I did not say."

       C
Oh, she danced away with my heart and soul
G                       C
Who she was I will never know
C
Danced away with my hopes and dreams
