Carolina In The Pines

	  		
 

 

 G              D7    
She came to me said she knew me 
           C                G            
Said she'd known me a long time 
           Am               Bm  
And she talked of being in love 
      C                    G 
With every mountain she had climbed. 
G                              D7      
And she talked of trails she'd walked up 
   C                G 
Far above the timberline 
          Am                  Bm     
From that night on I knew I'd write songs 
    C                G             C             G 
For Carolina in the pines. 


G              D7   
There's a full moon on the fourteenth 
  C                G 
First quarter twenty-first 
         Am                  Bm    
And a full moon in the last week 
     C                    G 
Brings a fullness to the earth. 
G                              D7    
There's no guess work in the clockwork 
  C                G 
Of the world's heart or mine 
         Am                  Bm    
There are nights I only feel right 
   C                G             C             G 
With Carolina in the pines. 


G                       D7   
As the frost grows on the windows 
 C                G 
The wood stove smokes and glows 
        Am                  Bm   
As the fire glows we can warm our souls 
    C                    G 
Makin' rainbows in the coals. 
G                       D7  
And we talk of trails we walk up 
C                G 
Far above the timberline 
       Am                  Bm 
There are nights I only feel right 
  C                G             C             G 
With Carolina in the pines.
