Lyrics

When Fan cy cars and dia mond rings, I’ve

seen all kinds of shin y things.

I

should be feel ing (Fm7)like a king, but Lord, (C)I don’t.

Great big town, so full of us ers.

Make a mil lion, still a los er.

Some ’ll bet on (Fm7)you to win; most hope (C)you won’t.

Liv in’ wild,

ain’t no mer cy be ing free

when it brings you to your knees, I was can’t keep (Dm7)ly

(G)in’.

I see the road now,

I know just what I need

to (Fm)find my way back to (C)Ten nes see.

I’m go in’ home now

to South ern air so sweet,

and (Fm)find my way back to (C)Ten nes see.

When I was on ly sev en teen, I

left be hind my beau ty queen.

I

turned my back on (Fm7)ev ’ry thing and ev (C)’ry one.

Rooms with lots of pret ty fac es

still don’t fill the emp ty spac es.

Won d’ring where a (Fm7)maz ing grace is; there (C)is none.

Now I know

there’s no com fort in this world.

God, I miss that home town girl, I was want to (Dm7)hold

(G)her.

I’m on the road now,

I know just what I need

to (Fm)find my way back to (C)Ten nes see.

I’m com in’ home now

to South ern air so sweet,

and (Fm)find my way back to (C)Ten nes see.

(Fm)find my way back to (Am7)you and me,

(Fm)find my way back to (C)Ten nes see.

About “Back To Tennessee

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Back To Tennessee"?
Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature C. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "Back To Tennessee" by Billy Ray Cyrus played in?
Back To Tennessee is arranged in the key of C on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.

Yes — this is one of our beginner-friendly arrangements with simplified chords and color-coded notes.
Can I download sheet music for "Back To Tennessee"?

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Back To Tennessee" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature C, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
Yes — slow the tempo from 120 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
Why can I click a note in the score?
Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
