Garth Brooks

Transposer:

This Ain’t Tennessee Composed by Garth Brooks Written by James Shaw Larry Bastin Found on the limited box set on the No Fences album nd at first Intro: It’s a big estate With wrought iron gates And palm trees standing tall Fancy mirrors and chandleirs Comfort wall to wall And the ocean air is so crisp and clear And they rave about our view But there ain’t no mountain breeze And there ain’t no hickory trees And this ain’t Tennessee And she ain’t you     There’s a bedroom suite Where she comes to me And as her fingers touch my face I close my eyes and I fantasize Of another time and place What she feels is so warm and real And I know her love is true And she tries so hard to plese Still I think sometimes she sees That this ain’t Tennessee And she ain’t you It’s not thatit’s not good enough And it’s not that I’m not man enough There’s just something easy going that I love about you and tennessee (Slide the Capo to the 3rd fret) So I made up my mind to learn my lines And try to play the part But part of me is in Tennessee And deep down in my heart I miss my Smokey Mountain home And I miss your lovin too And it’s deep inside of me And it’s always going to be Cause this ain’t tennessee And she ain’t you

La chanson évoque le sentiment de nostalgie et d'inadéquation dans un cadre luxueux qui ne peut remplacer les souvenirs d'un vrai chez-soi. Le protagoniste se retrouve dans un environnement éloigné de son Tennessee natal, entouré de tout le confort possible, mais il ne peut s’empêcher de ressentir un vide : il lui manque l’atmosphère simple et chaleureuse de son endroit d'origine. Il pense à l'amour qu'il a laissé derrière lui, à une connexion plus authentique et sincère, ce qui le pousse à réaliser que, malgré les apparences, rien ne pourra égaler ce qu'il a perdu.
