Carolina in My Mind James Taylor
CHORUS:
[G]In my mind I'm[C] going to Ca[D]rolina
[C]Can't you see the [D]sunshine
[C]Can't you just feel the [D]moonshine
[G]Maybe just like a [Em]friend of mine
It [C]hit me [G]from [D]behind
[C]Yes [D]I'm [G]going to [D]Caro[C]lina [D]in my [G]mind
[G]Karen she's a[C] silver sun
You best [C]walk her way and [D]watch it shining
[Em]Watch her [C]watch the morning[D] come
[C] [G] [Em] [D] [C]
[D]A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin, ain't I?
[G]Going to [D]Carol[C]ina [D]in my [G]mind
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/james_taylor/carolina_in_my_mind_crd_ver_3.html )
There [G]ain't no doubt it[C] no one's mind
That [C]love's the finest[D] thing around
[Em]Whisper [C]something warm and [D]kind
[C] [G] [Em] [D] [C]
And[D] hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm dying, ain't I?
[G]Going to [D]Caro[C]lina [D]in my [G]mind
[G]Dark and silent l[C]ate last night
I think I [C]might have heard the [D]highway calling
[Em]Geese in [C]flight and dogs that [D]bite
[C]Signs that might be [G]omens say I [Em]goi[D]ng, [C]go[D]ing
I'm [G]going to [D]Caro[C]lina [D]in my [G]mind
With a [Em]holy host of [C]others standing [Em]round me[D]
[G]Still I'm on the [C]dark side of the [Em]moon[D]
And it [C]seems like it goes [C]on like [D]this [G]forever
You must [Em]forgive me[D]
If I'm up and [G]gone to [D]Caro[C]lina [D]in my [G]mind
For the D in every 3rd line of the verses, you can put your pinky down on the high G
beside your middle finger which is on the F#). It'll sound nice, but it sounds the best if
do it like this:
D (wait) (add the pinky) (take it off)
"Whisper something warm and kind"
Good luck!
