[Verse]
A D
Where it began I can't begin to knowin'

A E
Who'd have believed you'd come along
[Pre-Chorus]
A A6
Hands, touching hands
E D E
Reaching out, touching me, touching you
[Chorus]
A D (D C# F#) D E
Sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good
A D (D C# F#) D E

D C#m Bm
But now I'm

[Pre-Chorus]
A A6
Warm, touching warm
E D E
Reaching out, touching me, touching you
[Chorus]

I'd be inclined to believe they never would
D C#m Bm
Oh no no
