Capo 3rd fret
C
I went down to Houston
F C
And I stopped in San Antone
G
I PASSED up the station for the bus
F C
I was TRYIN' to find me somethin'
Am F
But I wasn't sure just what
C G C
Man I ended up with pockets full of dust
C
Oh I went on down to Cleveland
F C
And I ended up insane
C G
I bought a borrowed suit and learned to dance
F C
And I was spendin' money
Am F
Like the way it likes to rain
C G C
Man I ended up with pockets full of cane
Refrain:
Am F C
Oh my sweet Carolina
Am F G
What compels me to go
Am F C
Oh my sweet disposition
Am G F
May you one day carry me home
C
I ain't NEVER been to Vegas
F C
But I gambled up my life
C G
Buildin' newsprint boats I raced the sewer mains
F C
Tryin' to find me somethin'
Am F
But I wasn't sure just what
C G C
Funny how they say some things never change
Refrain:
Am F C
Oh my sweet Carolina
Am F G
What compels me to go
Am F C
Oh my sweet disposition
Am G F
May you one day carry me home
........
Solo

C
C
Up here in the city
F C
feels like things are closing in
C G
The sunset's just my light bulb burning out
F C
I miss Kentucky
Am F
and I miss my family
C G C
All the sweetest winds, they blow across the South
Refrain:
Am F C
Oh my sweet Carolina
Am F G
What compels me to go
Am F C
Oh my sweet disposition
Am G C
May you one day carry me home
Am G C F
May you one day carry me home
Am G C
Am G C
