[Verse 1]I never had all the answersI never had enough timeBut I sure had all the reasonsWhy you weren't what I wanted to find[Verse 2]I never laid all my cards outYou just wanted to playThe king, he waited on my doorstepsWhile the joker and me went on our way[Chorus]Maybe I was much too selfishBut baby, you're still on my mindNow I'm grown and all aloneAnd wishing I was with you tonight'Cause I can guaranteeThings are sweeter in Tennessee[Verse 3]These days everything is all businessNever in one place for too longBut there's no lack of arms around meBut I still wonder if somewhere I went wrong[Chorus]Maybe I was much too selfishBut baby, you're still on my mindNow I'm grown and all aloneAnd wishing I was with you tonight'Cause I can guaranteeThings are sweeter in TennesseeIn Tennessee[Bridge]And I'd wish on every star in the southern skyFor that man and our life if I did not think that[Chorus]Maybe I was much too selfishBut baby, you're still on my mindNow I'm grown and all aloneAnd wishing I was with you tonight'Cause I can guaranteeThings are sweeter in Tennessee[Outro]Yes, I guaranteeThings are sweeter in Tennessee
