[Verse]
                               E
I'm gonna tell you 'bout the real deal
           G
I'm gonna tell you what I really like
D                            A
Me and my gal're havin' the time of our life
       G                     A
Yeah, it's so pure, it's so raw when we hold tight
  G                        A
Crazy in the moonshine, daytime's dynamite
  E                        G
She took me by storm in a raging sea
      D                        A
On a roller coaster ride, I am falling
              G                          A
I'm falling down, but I know I'll never hit the ground
           G                  A
She will catch me, she will save me

      Em              G
Hey that's what it's all about, no more no less
  D                      A
Day by day, on and on, all the way and back
             G                  A
Here we go again, I'm feeling right with her by my side
   G                      A
Strong as a lion, easy like a child
       E                         G
I am proud of what I have - no regrets for my past
  D                        A
I'll work on a hell of a future
       G                                                      A
But I know without her it's just half the way and I gotta say

[Chorus]
       E          D                A                E
I was born for a reason, and I'll die for just the same
    E                      D
I belong to my Tennessee woman
         A                  E   Em D
Without her, I'd be half a man

[Verse]
                                  E
And when she's singin' with her sweet voice to me
 G
Singing that southern sound
 D                          A
Kickin' the beat with her boots, I'm rhythm bound
  G               A                       G
And I play my guitar all night and she tells me
            A
Boy - you play alright
Em                        G
You and me sipping of a bottle of JD
        D                            A
We're spinning around, getting real dizzy
                 G                            A
We're spinning around, 'til we both fall and hit the ground
         G                   A
But we don't care, cause we don't care

      Em
Well that's my girl, no more no less
        D                 A
For my exes from Texas - no regrets
        G            A
Here I go now, I'm happy as can be
          G                      A
'Cause I got a great girl from Tennessee
          E
Now I'm proud of what I have
          G
I'm not stuck in the past
       D                    A
I'll work on my hell of a future
              G                   A                   G       A
But I know without you it's just half the way and I gotta say

[Chorus]
        E          D                A               E
I was born for a reason, and I'll die for just the same
      E                    D
I belong to my Tennessee woman
         A                  E
Without her, I'd be half a man

[Verse]
E                         G   D                A
I got a girl from Tennessee, and I sure like what I see
       G                         A
She's one of my kind, we're so close in mind
            G                  A
She's the lock and I'm the key
E
Well I'm a full-blooded Mississippi dude
D                               A
Met a lot of nice girls in the neighborhood
          G                 A
But the best place to be is anywhere for me
         G                  A
With my girl from Tennessee

[Chorus]
       E*          D*              C*               A*  G*
I was born for a reason, and I'll die for just the same
    E*                   D*
I belong to my Tennessee woman
         C*                E
Without her, I'd be half a man

        E           D              A                 E
I was born for a reason, and I'll die for just the same
     E                    D
I belong to my Tennessee woman
          A                 E
Without her, I'd be half a man
