4 Chords & The Proof Songtext
von The Cadillac Three

I sat down with my old guitar
Words and whiskey pullin′ straight from the heart
I heard it this mornin' on the ol′ truck radio
I wonder if you heard it, yeah, wherever you're callin' home

Tennessee ain′t Tennessee without you, baby
I′m walkin' Broadway holes in these missin′-you boots
Bummin' smokes from strangers, all the cover bands must hate me
′Cause they just keep on singin' that song I wrote about you, yeah


I never thought I was famous, but now I know I am
′Cause they all sing about my last heartbreak dance
And four chords and the proof and a sweet melody
I hope the left coast was worth you leavin' me

Tennessee ain't Tennessee without you, baby
I′m walkin′ Broadway holes in these missin'-you boots
Bummin′ smokes from strangers, all the cover bands must hate me
'Cause they just keep on singin′ that song I wrote about you, yeah

I dialed those seven digits you know I know so well
I wish you'd pick up the phone just so I could tell you

Tennessee ain′t Tennessee without you, baby
I'm walkin' Broadway holes in these missin′-you boots
Bummin′ smokes from strangers, all the cover bands must hate me
'Cause they just keep on singin′ that song I wrote about you (hey)
