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 LA
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
