🎶 Carolina

Capo 2


Oh, Caro[Am]lina creeks running [G]through my [Dm]veins
Lost I was born, lonesome I [G]came lonesome I'll [Am]always stay
Carolina knows why, for [G]years, I [Dm]roam
Free as these birds, light as whispers [G]Caroli[Am]na knows

And [Am]you didn't see me here no, they never did see me here
And she's [C]in [G]my [Dm]dreams Into the mist, into the [C]clouds [G]Don't [Dm]leave
[Dm]I make a fist, I'll make it count and [C]there are [G]places I will [Dm]never, ever go
[C]And things that only [G]Carolina will ever [Dm]know

Caro[Am]lina stains on the [G]dress she [Dm]left
Indelible scars, pivotal [G]marks blue as the [Am]life she fled
Carolina pines, won't you [G]cover [Dm]me?
Hide me like robes down the back [G]road muddy these [Am]webs we weave

And [Am]you didn't see me here no, they never did see me here
And she's [C]in [G]my [Dm]dreams Into the mist, into the [C]clouds [G]Don't [Dm]leave
[Dm]I make a fist, I'll make it count and [C]there are [G]places I will [Dm]never, ever go
[C]And things that only [G]Carolina will ever [Dm]know

And [Am]you didn't see me here they [G]never did see [Dm]me here
No, [Am]you didn't see me here they [G]never saw [Am]me

Oh, Car[Am]olina knows why for [G]years they've [Dm]said
That I was guilty as [G]sin and sleep in a [Am]liar's bed
But the [Am]sleep comes fast and I'll [G]meet no [Dm]ghosts
It's between me, the sand, and the[G] sea Caro[Am]lina knows
