Oh My Sweet Carolina

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

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

[G]Oh my sweet [D]Carolina
[G]What compels me to [A]go
[G]Oh my sweet [D]disposition
[D]May you one day c[A]arry me h[G]ome

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

[G]Oh my sweet [D]Carolina
[G]What compels me to [A]go
[G]Oh my sweet [D]disposition
[D]May you one day c[A]arry me h[G]ome

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

[G]Oh my sweet [D]Carolina
[G]What compels me to [A]go
[G]Oh my sweet [D]disposition
[D]May you one day c[A]arry me h[G]ome
[D]May you one day c[A]arry me h[G]ome
