                  G#
Some girls keep a class ring
A#                 Cm7
Some girls take an SEC t-shirt
                    G#        A#
Some girls need a strong drink
            Cm7
I need a little more to make this work
                          G#
'Cause you know what it'd do to me
A#                 Cm7
If we were in the same city
               G#
Let's lay the ground rules out
     A#                    Cm7
And settle all this right now

Chorus:
                      G#
You can hang on to my hometown
A#                      Cm7
Take the Virginia Beach sky
                         G#
All the Saint Augustine sunsets
           A#        Cm7
Take them Talladega nights
                          G#
But somewhere I gotta be selfish
A#                Cm7
I gotta draw the line
                               G#
So turn around at the welcome sign, babe
        A#           Cm7
'Cause Tennessee is mine

Don't come through for the whiskey
Don't come back for the broadway neon lights
I don't care if you miss me
As long as it's from your side of the state line

Chorus

 G# A# Cm7
Oh

         G#         A#
Take the California sun and
     Cm7
Take all those Georgia pines
        G#            A#
All I'm asking for is one
        Cm7
You got all the other 49

Chorus

Cm                          G#
Turn around at the welcome sign, babe
        A#            Cm7
'Cause Tennessee is mine
