Nashville Tennessee Chords & Lyrics by Frank Turner
Nashville Tennessee
guitar chords lyrics
A A7 A E E7 A
From the heart of the Southern Downs, to the North-East London reservoirs,
A A7 A E E7 A
From the start, the land scaped my sound, before I'd ever been to America.
D E A E D
And if I knew anybody who played pedal steel guitar,
D E A E D
I'd get them in my band and then my band would get real far,
D E A E D
But I was raised in middle England, and not in Nashville Tennessee,
D E A
And the only person in my band is me.
A A7 A E E7 A
A simple scale on an old guitar, and a punk rock sense of honesty.
A A7 A E E7 A
I cannot fail, I've got this far with no knowledge of mid-west geography.
D E A E D
And if I knew anybody who played pedal steel guitar,
D E A E D
I'd get them in my band and then my band would get real far,
D E A E D
But I was raised in middle England, and not in Nashville Tennessee,
D E A
And the only person in my band is me.
Bm D A E Bm
And yes I'm in four-four time, and yes I use cheap cheap rhymes,
D A
But I try to make a sound my own.
Bm D A E Bm
I know I don't break new ground, many have travelled this sound,
D A
But I try to make it sound like home.
A A
Well I've been to Texas state, I didn't think it was that fucking great,
D E
And Nebraska is just a bunch of songs,
A D
Holloway and Hampshire where I belong.
D E A E D
And I don't know anybody who plays pedal steel guitar,
D E A E D
All the city roads are twisted and I do not own a car.
D E A E D
I was raised in middle England, and not in Nashville Tennessee,
D E A
And the only person in my band is me.
