I tried to tell you but I couldn't find a word
Maybe, I did and you misunder stood
I guess, I thought it better for never we should be
I waited too long now, I'm bound for Tennes see
There's no use wonderin`
Things are never what they seem
No sense in turning round
Looking back won't change a thing
That ship is sailing
It's gone out on the sea
I waited too long
Now I'm bound for Tennessee
Break
And when I am gone
Even long gone better, yeah
I won't forget you
Hear your voice in my head
I missed my chance to tell you
How much you meant to me
I waited too long
Now I'm bound for Tennessee
Solo
Dobro
Mandoline
Promised not to call you
And I won't write you anymore
I lived that good life
Isn't that what livin's for?
It's not the going
It's the staying that worries me
'cause I waited too long
Now, I'm bound for Tennessee
Yes, we waited too long
Now, I'm bound for Tennessee
