G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
Every scream went bleeding through these paper walls
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
and all the make-up in the world couldn't hide the scars
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
I leave today, I'm packing light: a suitcase, some toiletries
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
The rolling hills and willow trees of Carolina wait for me
(riff)
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
You never learned, the rules have changed since we were nine
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
This isn't school: boys don't assault the girls they like
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
The taste of blood, the claim of love: these two will here on cease to be
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
Sprouting from your fists and tongue 'cause Carolina waits for me
(riff)
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
Fields of grain go whipping by from the window seat
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
I'm drifting in, I'm drifting out catching up on sleep
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
I couldnt get indentured since the very crest of 17
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
I left my keys and broken dreams 'cause Carolina waits for me
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
I will never forgive a single day
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
Mile markers seem to call my name and say,
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
"you're safer now, through every town,
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
we'll light your way in reflective green all the way"
G Cadd9 Am/G Cadd9
The entire state of Carolina waits for me
