C                                          F         C
Well I'm gonna get on that old turpike and I'm gonna ride
                          D7         G
I'm gonna leave this town till you decide
C                                F             C
Which one you want the most them Opry stars or me
F         C                G               C
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee

[Verse 1]
C                          F              C
Milwaukee is where we were before we came here
                     D7                G
Workin' in a brewery making the finest beer
C                                     F                C
You come to me on a payday night said let's go to Tennessee
F                  C                G            C
So we came down to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opry

[Verse 2]
F                               Bb                F
Well we were watchin' TV Ernest Tubb was singing loud
                               G                   C7
I said that's the man for me I love him there's no doubt
F                                Bb                  F
I'm leavin' you and going out to find out where he's at
Bb                          F               C7               F
And if I can't get him I'll settle for that bluegrass Lester Flatt

[Chorus]
C                                    F             C
I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride
                            D7         G
I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide
C                           F           C
Which one you love the best me or Jerry Lee
F         C                G               C
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee

[Verse 3]
C                           F               C
I'm a goin' now and trade my ol' Ford for an Olds
                                   D7               G
Huh I might get all drunked up and trade it for the Rolls
C                                   F              C
There's a one thing I know for sure I'll always be blue
F                     C                   G            C
There ain't no way to get drunk enough to stop lovin' you

[Chorus]
C                                    F             C
I'm a gonna get on that ol' turnpike and I'm gonna ride
                            D7         G
I'm a gonna leave this town till you decide
C                           F           C
Which one you love the best me or Jerry Lee
F         C                G               C
Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee
  F         C                G              C
Oh Milwaukee here I come from Nashville Tennessee
