[C]

[Verse 1]
Now [G]there are folks who like to brag

But when they start that [C]stuff, I let 'em be
But it makes me feel like I wanna brag some
To know that I [G]come from the

Let's give old Tennessee [C]credit for music
[G]As they play it up in Nashville every day
Let's give old Tennessee
credit for music
As they play it in that old Hillbilly way

[Verse 3]
[G]Mister Red Foley came from Kentucky
Now, Ernest Tubb down [C]in Texas,
don't you see
But if all you folks out there

[Verse 5]
They make bombs [C]they say, that can
blow up our world, dear
Well a country boy like me, I will agree
But if all you [G]folks out there can
remember
They made the first atom[C]ic[G]
[C]bomb in Tennessee
