C            F              G7              C
Hours on the telephone it's time to hang it up

            F                       G7
But I can't bring myself to say goodnight

     C           F               G7                    C
This empty place inside my heart reminds me that we're miles apart

   F                              G7
Oh darling how I long to hold you tight


        F         G7               C                F
We both know that it's too late to travel down that interstate

        Dm                             G7
There's just one way I can be with you tonight


C          F              G7
I'll  Tennessee you in my dreams

C                 F              Dm          G7
Close my eyes and take away this distance in between

     C                F       G7              Am  G7   F
Just knowing that you love me gives my spirit w-ings tonight

          G7             C
I'll Tennessee you in my dreams


               F             G7          C
It's two AM in Nashville and midnight in A 

         F                                G7
But it's all the same when we look at the sky

     C            F                 G7                        C
Well I never knew till I missed you how stars so bright could make me blue

    F                            G7
Without my special someone by my side


    F          G7               C               F
The airport in this old town is long ago closed down

            Dm                              G7
And there's just one way our hearts can fly tonight


        F         G7               C                F
We both know that it's too late to travel down that interstate

        Dm                             G7
There's just one way I can be with you tonight


F               G7           Am             G7    F
Close your eyes make believe tonight you're lyin' next to me

    Dm         G7             C
And I'll  Tennessee you in my dreams

     Dm                G7             C
Whoa tonight I'll Tennessee you in my dreams
