There's a soothing melody
it is full of mystery,
how I love to hear it
when I'm blue.
When I'm blue
and don't know what I will do,
Ev'ry time I hear that strain,
brings my old love back again,
and those days in dear old Tennessee
Vision thoughts,
and it sounds so good to me.

Just listen to that sweet melody
from dear old Tennessee,
I can't resist
but must admit
it makes me feel so good,
I don't know what to do,
now listen
to that sweet harmony
it's rag with sympathy
to make a hit
just take a tip
play that strain
known as Chattanooga Blues.

Just listen to that sweet melody
from dear old Tennessee,
I can't resist
but must admit
it makes me feel so good,
I don't know what to do,
now listen
to that sweet harmony
it's rag with sympathy
to make a hit
just take a tip
play that strain
known as Chattanooga Blues.

When you hear that melody
you will like it to a "T"
then you'll hang around a music man.
When he starts that tune
you will say it's grand,
If you like good harmony,
that's not used so commonly.
it's the kind old Liszt
would try to use
in that strain,
known as Chattanooga Blues.

Just listen to that sweet melody
from dear old Tennessee,
I can't resist
but must admit
it makes me feel so good,
I don't know what to do,
now listen
to that sweet harmony
it's rag with sympathy
to make a hit
just take a tip
play that strain
known as Chattanooga Blues.

Just listen to that sweet melody
from dear old Tennessee,
I can't resist
but must admit
it makes me feel so good,
I don't know what to do,
now listen
to that sweet harmony
it's rag with sympathy
to make a hit
just take a tip
play that strain
known as Chattanooga Blues.
