Nashville, TN

I met you when I had a dream

Not so long ago, it seems

We closed down a million bars

Yeah, you and me, we've come so far

You showed me how to write a song

We wrote some right, we wrote some wrong

I was down and out, you let me in

At times you were my only friend

So long, Nashville, Tennessee

You can't have what's left of me

And as far as I can tell

It's high time, I wish you well

You build me up, you set me free

You tore down my memories

So you be you and I'll be me

So long, Nashville, Tennessee

Now you won't miss me when I'm gone

You're custom made for movin' on

And time to time I'll pass you by

Face that I don't recognize

And who knows? Maybe years from now

You'll be the one I think about

But I just can't imagine that

'Cause I'm not one for lookin' back

So long, Nashville, Tennessee

You can't have what's left of me

And as far as I can tell

It's high time, I wish you well

You build me up, you set me free

You tore down my memories

So you be you and I'll be me

So long, Nashville, Tennessee

So long, Nashville, Tennessee

You can't have what's left of me

And as far as I can tell

It's high time, I wish you well

You build me up, you set me free

You tore down my memories

You're not who you used to be

So long Nashville, Tennessee
