Oh My Sweet Carolina

Capo 1

D
I went down to Houston
    G         D
And I stopped at San Antone
                        A
And I passed up the station for the bus
       G      
And I was tryin to find me somethin
    D    A      G
But I wasnt sure just what
    D         G          D
And I ended up with pockets full of dust

   D
And I went down to Cleveland
    G        D
Thats where I went insane
                            A
I bought a borrowed suite and learned to dance
   G
And I was spendin money
      D    A     G
Like the way it likes to rain
    D         G          D
Man I ended up with pockets full of cane

Refrain:
G       D
Oh my sweet Carolina
G            A
What compels me to Go
G       D
Oh my sweet disposition
D           A     G
May you one day carry me home

D         
Never been to Vegas
    G         D
But I gambled of my life
                               A
Though the newsprint boats are raced in sewer mains
       G
And I was tryin to find me somthin
    D    A      G
But I wasnt sure just what
D            G           D
Funny how they say some things never change

Refrain:
G       D
Oh my sweet Carolina
G            A
What compels me to Go
G       D
Oh my sweet disposition
D           A     G
May you one day carry me home

   D
And out here in the city 
       G            D
seems like things are closing in
                           A
The sunset's just my light bulb burning out
 G
I miss Kentucky 
    D     A   G
and I miss my family
     D             G          D
All the sweetest winds they blow across the South

Refrain:
G       D
Oh my sweet Carolina
G            A
What compels me to Go
G       D
Oh my sweet disposition
D           A     G
May you one day carry me home
D           A     G
May you one day carry me home
