The Tennessee Waltz - Connie Francis.
Hit the charts in 1959.(***I believe Francis sang only
Verses #1 & #2 plus CHORUS:#1, and repeated them.
I added the other verse(#3) and chorus(#2.) in case anyone
was interested. The chords are my version.)

#1.
E E7 A
I was dancin' with my darlin to the Tennessee Waltz
E C#m F# B
When an old friend I happened to see.
E E7 A
I introduced him to my darlin' and while they were dancin'
E A B E
my friend stole my sweetheart from me.

CHORUS:#1.
E E7 A E
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
C#m F# B
cause I know just how much I have lost.
E E7 A
Yes I lost my little darlin' the night they were playin'
E A B E
That beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
#2.
E E7 A
Now I wonder how a dance like the Tennessee Waltz
E C#m F# B
Could have broken my heart so complete.
E E7 A
Well, I couldn't blame my darlin', and who could help fallin'
E A B E
In love with my darlin' so sweet.

CHORUS:#2.
E E7 A E
Well it must be the fault of the Tennessee Waltz
C#m F# B
Wish I'd known just how much it would cost.
E E7 A
But I didn't see it comin', it's all over but the cryin',
E A B E
Blame it all on the Tennessee Waltz.
#3.
E E7 A
He goes dancin' with the darkness to the Tennessee Waltz,
E C#m F# B
and I feel like I'm falling apart.
E E7 A
and it's stronger than drink and it's deeper than sorrow,
E A B E
this darkness he left in my heart.

CHORUS:#1.

A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
