Version 1
Carolina in the Pines, by Michael Martin Murphy.
[Intro]
| A | A2 | D | A |
| D | C#m | Bm | A |
[Verse 1]
A A2
She came to me, said she knew me
D A
Said she'd known me a long time
D C#m
And she spoke of being in love
Bm A
With every mountain she had climbed
[Chorus]
A A2
And she talked of trails she'd walked up
D A
Far above the timber line
D C#m
From that night on, I knew I'd write songs
Bm A
With Carolina in the pines
[Solo]
| A | A2 | D | A |
| D | C#m | Bm | A |
[Verse 2]
A A2
There's a new moon on the 14th
D A
First quarter the 21st
D C#m
And the full moon in the last week
Bm A
Brings a fullness to this Earth
[Chorus]
A A2
There's no guesswork in the clockwork
D A
Of the world's heart or mine
D C#m
There are nights I only feel right
Bm A
With Carolina in the pines
[Solo]
| A | A2 | D | A |
| D | C#m | Bm | A |
| A | A2 | D | A |
| D | C#m | Bm | A |
[Verse 3]
A A2
When the frost shows on the windows
D A
And the wood stove smokes and glows
D C#m
As the fire grows we will warm our souls
Bm A
Watching rainbows in the coals
[Chorus]
A A2
And we'll talk of trails we walked up
D A
Far above the timber line
D C#m
There are nights I only feel right
Bm A
With Carolina in the pines
[Solo]
| A | A2 | D | A |
| D | C#m | Bm | A |
| A | A2 | D | A |
| D | C#m | Bm | A |
