Every state has a change of venue statute. Yes, even TN.
TN Code of Civil Procedure states
20-4-201. Cases in which venue changeable. —
In all civil cases at law where the issue is to be tried by jury, and in all cases of issues in courts of equity directed to be tried by jury, either in the circuit or chancery court, in all civil cases before a judge of the court of general sessions, and in all criminal cases:
(1) The venue may be changed, at any time before trial, upon good cause shown, as prescribed in this part;
20-4-203. Application for change. —
The party applying for a change of venue shall make a statement of facts, in writing, under oath or affirmation, that the party verily believes that, owing to prejudice, or other causes, then existing, the party cannot have a fair and impartial trial in the county, or before the general sessions judge, where the cause is pending, the truth of which statement shall, in a court of record, be verified and supported by the oath of at least three (3), and before a general sessions judge, of one (1) or more, respectable and disinterested persons.
