Franklin Limestone, always been my home
              A        D                      A
I was born in Nashville, the place I call my own
           D                  C#m             Bm
Where the mountains, and the rivers, and the valleys
         E                A   D      A
We were married, you and me

[Chorus]
D               C#m                Bm
We were both so happy just being together
       E             A     D      A
Like a possum in the wood
            C#m                      Bm
So please forgive me if I forget to tell you
E                A    D      A
What you mean to me

[Verse 2]
A               D             A      D
Hard cold winter took away my mother
             A     D                                 A
Papa got the fever, Lord he said he couldn't leave her
    D                  C#m                    Bm
You carried me through bad times, through the worst times
    E                A     D      A
You were my driving wheel

[Chorus]
D               C#m                Bm
We were both so happy just being together
       E             A     D      A
Like a possum in the wood
             C#m                    Bm
So please forgive me if I forget to tell you
E                A    D      A
What you mean to me

[Verse 3]
A                 D                    A   D
Workin in a coal mine, slaving in the day time
              A    D                     A    D
Lookin to the Good Lord for any peace of mind
     D              C#m            Bm
The feeling if you left me on that hillside
      E                   A   D        A
Would break this heart of mine

[Chorus]
D               C#m                Bm
We were both so happy just being together
       E             A     D      A
Like a possum in the wood
             C#m                    Bm
So please forgive me if I forget to tell you
E                A    D      A
