[1] Her eyes were blue her hair was [5] auburn
Her smile was like an angel [1] dear
She was her daddys only [5] daughter
On the Tennessee [1] border

One [4] night I took a ride just across the [1] line
I [2maj] picked her up in a pickup truck and [5] she broke this heart of mine
Her [1] Mother said no [5] she's my only daughter
But we got married on the Tennessee [1] border

The roses bloomed around the border
The moon shone down from above
I fell in love the night I saw her
On the Tennessee border
