                             Caroline 





Capo - 3

D                       A        Em                      G
With her brother in the kitchen, breaking green beans in half
D                                 A           Em                   G
While her father worked in a coal mine, doing chores he'd left for them
D                     A                        Em                   G
I say her momma left, and took the family car, on a cold midwestern evening
D                   A                 Em                      G
She left everything behind, searching for , a little piece of mind
Em                     A7
Somewhere on the other side....

Chorus:
D         F#m           Bm                      G
Caroline, Caroline......lives her life inside a daydream
D                    A               Em               G
And she keeps it all inside, all the pain, she has to hide, 
Em                          A7             D
All the boys would stand in line......for Caroline

D                      A                Em                G
When the daughter of a miner, loved the boy from down the road
D                  A       Em               G
At sixteen she was wedded, he was 24 years old
D                          A                         Em  
Well the checks were small, and the debts were large
                         G
And it seemed he'd never work
D                         A                Em                   G
He had a problem with the bottle, he'd get drunk, and she'd get hurt
Em                   A7
Lonely depressed and insecure....

D         F#m           Bm                      G
Caroline, Caroline......lives her life inside a daydream
D                    A               Em               G
And she keeps it all inside, all the pain, she has to hide, 
Em                          A7             D
All the boys would stand in line......for Caroline              

D                 A     Em                       G
Living in a motel room, sleeping double across 2 beds
D                         A                 Em                G
She tries not to wake the children, tangled in her long black hair
D                          A                       Em                    G
She dreams of leaving him, and putting him in jail, high walls and iron bars
D                        A               Em                G
She read the sins of the father, will be visited, upon the son
Em                             A7
She lives in fear of things to come.....

D         F#m          Bm                      G
Caroline, Caroline.....lives her life inside a daydream
D                    A               Em               G
And she keeps it all inside, all the pain, she has to hide, 
Em                        A7        D
Peace will be with you in time.....Caroline
Em                        A7        D
Peace will be with you in time.....Caroline
