Version 1
            [Intro]

A


[Verse]

A
Back about eighteen and twenty-five
  G
I left Tennessee very much alive
     A
I never would've made it through the Arkansas mud
                               E         A
If I hadn't been riding on the Tennessee Stud

A
Had some trouble with my sweetheart's Pa
G
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
A
I wrote a letter to my Uncle Fudd
                       E         A
And I rode away on the Tennessee Stud


[Chorus]

    A                  G        A
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean
    D                        C         E
The color of the sun and his eyes were green
A
He had the nerve and he had the blood
                             E         A
There never was a horse like Tennessee Stud


[Verse]
A
Drifted on down into no man's land
  G
Across the river called the Rio Grande
   A
Raced my horse with the Spaniard's foe
                             E          A
'Til I got me a skin full of silver and gold

A
Me and the gambler, we couldn't agree
 G
We got in a fight over Tennessee
 A
Pulled our guns and he fell with a thud
                     E         A
And I rode away on a Tennessee Stud


[Chorus]

    A                  G        A
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean
    D                        C         E
The color of the sun and his eyes were green
A
He had the nerve and he had the blood
                             E         A
There never was a horse like Tennessee Stud


[Verse]

A
I rode right back across Arkansas
   G
I whupped her brother and I whupped her Pa
   A
I found that girl with the golden hair
                    E         A
She was riding on a Tennessee Mare

A
Pretty little baby on the cabin floor
 G
Little horse colt playing round the door
   A
I loved the girl with the golden hair
                                 E         A
And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare


[Chorus]

    A                  G        A
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean
    D                        C         E
The color of the sun and his eyes were green
A
He had the nerve and he had the blood
                             E         A
There never was a horse like Tennessee Stud
