Taylor Swift - Carolina

(from “Where The Crawdads Sing” soundtrack)

[Verse 1]
Bm A Em
Oh, Carolina creeks running through my veins
Em A
Lost I was born, lonesome I came
Bm
Lonesome I’ll always stay
Bm A Em
Carolina knows why, for years, I roam
Em A
Free as these birds, light as whispers
Bm
Carolina knows

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
And you didn’t see me here
Bm
No, they never did see me here
D A Em
And she’s in my dreams

[Chorus]
Em D
Into the mist, into the clouds
A Em
Don’t leave
Em D
I make a fist, I’ll make it count
A Em
And there are places I will never, ever go
Bm A Em Bm
And things that only Carolina will ever know

[Instrumental]
Bm A Em
Em A Bm

[Verse 2]
Bm A Em
Carolina stains on the dress she left
Em A
Indelible scars, pivotal marks
Bm
Blue as the life she fled
Bm A Em
Carolina pines, won’t you cover me?
Em A
Hide me like robes down the back road
Bm
Muddy these webs we weave

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
And you didn’t see me here
Bm
Oh, they never did see me here
D A Em
And she’s in my dreams

[Chorus]
Em D
Into the mist, into the clouds
A Em
Don’t leave
Em D
I make a fist, I’ll make it count
A Em
And there are places I will never, ever go
Bm A Em D A Em
And things that only Carolina will ever know

[Instrumental]
D A Em
D A Em
D A Em
Em

[Refrain]
Bm
And you didn’t see me here
A
They never did see me here
Em
No, you didn’t see me here
A
They never saw me

[Verse 3]
Bm A Em
Oh, Carolina knows why for years they’ve said
Em A Bm
That I was guilty as sin and sleep in a liar’s bed
Bm A Em
But the sleep comes fast and I’ll meet no ghosts
Em A
It’s between me, the sand, and the sea
Bm
Carolina knows
