[Intro 1]
[D][A][Bm][G][D][A]
[D][A][Bm][G][D][A][D][Bm]
[A][D][A][Bm][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Highway [A]40 roll on [D]by
If I [A]could reach across the
[Bm]Distance for a [G]moment
[D]I'd [A]steal the sadness from [D]her [A]eyes

[Verse 2]
[D]It's Feb[A]ruary and
[Bm]the weather's
Clear [G]for [D]driving
How I've missed your [A]Tennessee
[D]The mor[A]ning sun just stole the
[Bm]Shadows from [G]the mountains[D]
And [A]the years away from me
[D][A]

[Verse 3]
Yes I've changed and I [G]knew
that I was [D]able[A]
But you still [F#]look the same [Bm]to me[G]
And your [A]eyes are just as
[D]Blue across the [G]table[D]
[A]As the sky in Ten[D]nessee[A][D][A]
[Bm][G][D][A][D]
[A][Bm][G][D][A][D]
This old [A]farm is ne'er so
[Bm]big as I rem[G]ember[D]
Now the fields are [A]burned and [D]brown
The [A]Pigeon River's running
[Bm]Deeper than [G]December
[D]Where the[A] Winter snows
lay [D]down[Bm]
[A]How you love

[Verse 4]
[D]your hou[A]se and this
[Bm]Long bed sent from [G]Kenya
And the telling [D]of the story of
The woman you [Bm]met [A]there
She's [D]a d[A]arkhaired beauty - my
Hair's [Bm]only growing [G]thinner[D]
And my [A]threads a little bare
[D][Bm]

[Verse 5]
[A]
Yes I've changed and I [G]knew that I was [D]able
[A]But you still loo[F#]k the same to [Bm]me[G]
And your [A]eyes are just as
[D]Blue across the [G]table[D]
As [A]the sky in Ten[D]nessee
[Bm][D][A]

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][G][D][A]
[D][A][Bm][G][D]
[A][D]
In [A]the silence

[Verse 6]
hear [Bm]the years
We dare [G]not speak [D]of
Let this arrow [A]pass on [D]through
And I'll [A]be gone before my
[Bm]Heart has met [G]resistance[D]
Like you [A]hoped that I would do
[D]

[Verse 7]
See [A]the Redtail turn her
[Bm]Wing toward the [G]mountain
[D]God there's sunlight in you[A]r smi[D]le
If I [A]could reach across the
[G]Distance for a moment
[D]I'd steal her mem[A]ory from your eye[D]s

[Verse 8]
[A]
Yes I've changed and I [G]knew that I was able
[D]But[A] you still loo[F#]k the same
to [Bm]me[A][G]
And your [A]eyes are just as
[D]Blue across the [G]table[D]
[A]As the sky in Ten[Bm]nessee[G][D]
As [A]the sky in [D]Tenness[A]ee

[Outro 1]
