Intro: A A A E D A D A A 

         A           E 
She came to me,said she new me 
             D             A 
said she'd know me a long time 
          D            A 
And she spoke of being in love 
              D               A 
With every mountain she had climed 

          A                     D 
And she talked of trails she' walked up 
      D               A 
Far above the timber line 
            D                   A 
From that night on i knew i'd write songs 
         D             A 
With Carolina in the pines 

A E D A A E D A 

          A               E 
Theres a new moon on the 14th 
        D          A 
First quarter the 21st 
         D                A 
And the full moon in the last week 
            D               A 
Brings a fullness to this earth 

            A                E 
Theres no guesswork in the clockwork 
           D            A 
All the worlds are all mine 
            D            A 
There are nights i only feel right 
         D            A 
With Carolina in the pines 

A E D A A E D A A E D A D A D A A E D A E D A 

           A                   E 
When the frost shows on the window 
          D                     A 
And the wood stove smokes and glows 
         D                 A 
As the fire grows we will warm ourselves 
            D              A 
Watching rainbows in the cold 

            A                 E 
And we'll talk of trails we walked up 
      D                A 
Far above the timber line 
            D            A 
There are nights i only feel right 
         D             A 
With Carolina in the pines 

A E D A A E D A A E D A D A D A A E D A D A D A
