[Chorus]
D              G       Em7 A
In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
G                 A         Em7                      A
Can't you see the sunshine? Can't you just feel the  moonshing
    D              D/C#   Em7/B    A7sus4
And Ain't it just like a friend of mine to
G       D/F#   E7   A7
hit me  from behind
    D       Bm7  Em7 A7sus4 D
I'm gone to Carolina in my  mind.

[Verse 1]
D              Cadd9
Karen, she's a silver sun you'd best
G                A
walk her way and watch it shining.
Bm             G                 A
   watch her   watch the morning come.
G              D/F#             E7sus4/B E7  A7
A silver tear appearing now, Im cry-     ing ain't I?
    D       Bm7  Em7 A7sus4 D
I'm gone to Carolina in my  mind.

[Verse 2]
      D                 Cadd9
There ain't no doubt in no ones mind that
G                A
loves the finest thing around.
Bm         G                  A
   Whisper something soft and kind.
    G                 D/F#          E7sus4/B E7  A7
And hey babe, the skies on fire, Im dy-      ing ain't I?
         D       Bm7  Em7 A7sus4 D      G    A
Said I’m gone to Carolina in my  mind.

[Chorus]
D              G       Em7 A
In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
G                 A         Em7                      A
Can't you see the sunshine? Can't you just feel the  moonshing
    D              D/C#   Em7/B    A7sus4
And Ain't it just like a friend of mine to
G       D/F#   E7   A7
hit me  from behind
    D       Bm7  Em7 A7sus4 D
I'm gone to Carolina in my  mind.

[Verse 3]
D                Cadd9
Dark and silent, late last night
  G                            A
I think I might have heard the highway  calling;
Bm           G                    A
    geese in flight and dogs that bite.
    G                   D/F#        E7sus4/B E7
And signs that might be omens say Im go------ing,
    A7
Yes I gotta be going,
    D       Bm7  Em7 A7sus4 D
I'm gone to Carolina in my  mind.

[Bridge]
            G            A               Bm
Now with a  holy host of others standing round me
F#m             Em               G
Still Im on the dark side of the moon.
       C                  G/B             D
And it looks like it goes on like this forever.
            C9      G/B    Em9
You must forgive me
    A7*   D       Bm7  Em7 A7sus4 D     G   A
if I am   gone to Carolina in my  mind.

[Chorus]
D              G       Em7 A
In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
G                 A         Em7                      A
Can't you see the sunshine? Can't you just feel the  moonshing
    D              D/C#   Em7/B    A7sus4
And Ain't it just like a friend of mine to
G       D/F#   E7   A7
hit me  from behind
    D       Bm7  Em7 A7sus4 D
I'm gone to Carolina in my  mind.

[Outro]
D/C#   Em7/B    A7sus4

    G       D/F# Em7  A7sus4  D
I’m gone to Caro-lina in my   mind

D/C#   Em7/B    A7sus4 G       D/F#   E7   A7
                                           If I am

D         Bm7   G   D/F#  Em7  A7sus4  D
Gone to   Caro—lin--a     in   my     mind
