Lyrics and Music by James Taylor


Intro: G | C C | Am7 | D7

Chorus:
     G              C            Am7  D
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     C                 D
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Am7                     D7     D
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     G             D      Em        D
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        C      G       A7
     To hit me from behind?
     D7       G
     Yes, I’m gone
        Em7  Am7  D7     G
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G | G

G              F
Karen, she’s a silver sun,
           C
You’d best walk her away
    D        B7       Em
And watch it shining.
          C                    D
Watch her watch the morning come.
  C             G
A silver tear appearing now
    Em7  A7  Am7     D7
I’m crying, ain’t I?
    G       Em7  Am7  D7     G
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G | G

      G                 F
There ain’t no doubt in noone’s mind
     C                 D      B7     Em
That love’s the finest thing around.
        C                   D
Whisper something soft and kind.
    C                G
And hey, babe, the sky’s on fire,
    Em7  A7  Am7    D7
I’m dying, ain’t I?
    G       Em7  Am7  D7     G
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G | G

Chorus:
     G              C       Am7  D
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     C                 D
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Am7                     D
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     G             D      Em        D
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        C      G      A7
     To hit me from behind?
     D7       G
     Yes, I’m gone
        Em7  Am7  D7     G
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G | G

G               F
Dark and silent late last night,
          C
I think I might have heard
    D       B7       Em
The highway calling.
               C                    D
Geese in flight and dogs that bite.
    C                   G
The signs that might be omens say
    Em7  A7    Am7  D7
I’m going, I’m going,
    G       Em7  Am7  D7     G
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G | G

          C            D
   With a Holy host of others
              Em
   Standing around me,
   Bm               Am
   Still I’m on the dark side
          C     D
   Of the moon.
          F
   And it seems like
           C               G
   It goes on like this forever.
               F        Am7
   You must forgive me…
   D7            G
   If I’m up and gone
      Em7  Am7  D     G
   To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G | G

Chorus:
     G              C       Am7  D
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     C                 D
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Am7                     D
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     G             D      Em        D
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        C      G      A7
     To hit me from behind?
     D7       G
     Yes, I’m gone
             C G    Am7  D7     G
     To Carolina in my mind.

     Gone to Carolina in my mind.

     Then I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

     C       G    Am7  D7     G
     Gone to Carolina in my mind.

     C     G    Am7  D7     G
     Gone, I’m gone, I’m gone.

Instrumental: G D | Em7 D

     C        G       Am7
     Say nice things about me,
         D7      G D    Em7      D
     ’Cause I’m gone southbound.
     C     G      Am
     Carry on without me,
     D7     G
     I’m gone…
