I met you when I had a dream

Not so long ago it seems

And 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, TN

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 built me up

You set me free

You tore down my memories

So you be you and I’ll be me

So long Nashville, TN

Now you won’t miss me when I’m gone

You’re custom made for moving on

And time to time I’ll pass you by

A 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 looking back

So long Nashville, TN

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 built me up

You set me free

You tore down my memories

So you be you and I’ll be me

So long Nashville, TN
