Verse 1:
        Bm                  A          Em
Oh, Carolina creeks running through my veins
           Em               A
Lost I was born, lonesome I came
              Bm
Lonesome I'll always stay
    Bm                  A        Em
Carolina knows why, for years, I roam
              Em                  A
Free as these birds, light as whispers
    Bm
Carolina knows

Pre-chorus:
    Bm
And you didn't see me here
         Bm
No, they never did see me here
          D  A  Em
And she's in my dreams

Chorus:
         Em             D
Into the mist, into the clouds
A     Em
Don't leave
         Em                 D
I make a fist, I'll make it count
              A             Em
And there are places I will never, ever go
Bm                A        Em             Bm
  And things that only Carolina will ever know

Instrumental:
   Bm A Em
   Em A Bm

Verse 2:
    Bm                 A         Em
Carolina stains on the dress she left
          Em             A
Indelible scars, pivotal marks
            Bm
Blue as the life she fled
    Bm                    A     Em
Carolina pines, won't you cover me?
             Em                  A
Hide me like robes down the back road
            Bm
Muddy these webs we weave

Pre-chorus:
    Bm
And you didn't see me here
         Bm
Oh, they never did see me here
          D  A  Em
And she's in my dreams

Chorus:
         Em             D
Into the mist, into the clouds
A     Em
Don't leave
         Em                 D
I make a fist, I'll make it count
              A             Em
And there are places I will never, ever go
Bm                A        Em             D    A Em
  And things that only Carolina will ever know

Refrain:
    Bm
And you didn't see me here
     A
They never did see me here
    Em
No, you didn't see me here
     A
They never saw me

Verse 3:
        Bm                 A             Em
Oh, Carolina knows why for years they've said
           Em        A                  Bm
That I was guilty as sin and sleep in a liar's bed
        Bm                        A       Em
But the sleep comes fast and I'll meet no ghosts
             Em                    A
It's between me, the sand, and the sea
    Bm
Carolina knows
