 Karin, she's a silver sun, 
            G                A7        A#7 
 You best  walk her way and watch it shine 
     Bm        G                     A 
 and watch her watch the morning come 
   G             D/F#            Bm  E7 A7sus4/E        A7 
 A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin'              ain't I

 Gone to Carolina in my mind 
 
VERSE 2: 
       D                    C 
 There ain't no doubt in no one's mind 
       G                A7    A#7 
 that loves the finest thing around 
 Bm      G                      A 
 Whisper something soft and kind 
     G                    D/F#        Bm E7  A7sus4/E    A7 
 and hey, babe, the sky's on fire I'm dy-ing          ain't I

 Gone to Carolina in my mind

VERSE 3: 
 D                    C 
 Dark and silent late last night, 
           G                        A7     A#7 
 I think I might have heard the highway call   and 
 Bm              G                 A
 geese in flight and dogs that bite. 
     G                    D/F#         Bm     E7  A7sus4/E  A7 
 The signs that might be omens say I'm goin', I'm goin', 
     D       Bm  E7   A7       D
 I'm gone to Carolina in my mind 
 
BRIDGE: 
        G               A                    Bm 
 With a holy host of others standin' aroun',  
 F#m                   Em                    G  A7 
 still I'm on the dark dark side of the moon now 
              C            G       Em        E 
 And it seems like it goes on like this forever  
             Cadd9  G/B  Em7 
 You must forgive me  
 D5/A               D     Bm Em    A    D 
 if I'm up and gone to Carolina in   my mind

 And I'm goin' to    Caroli-   na in        my     mind  
         Goin' to    Caroli-   na in        my     mind  
         Gone           I'm  gone           I'm    gone  
 Say nice things about  me 'cause I'm gone south  now  
 Got to  carry on without me I'm gone
