Lyrics and Music by James Taylor


Intro: B | E E/Eb | C#m7 | F#7sus4

Chorus:
     B              E       E/Eb C#m7 F#
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     E                 F#
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     C#m7                    F#7sus4 F#
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     B             F#/Bb  G#m       F#sus4
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        E      B/Eb    C#7
     To hit me from behind?
     F#7      B
     Yes, I’m gone
        G#m7 C#m7 F#7sus4 B
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: B | B

B              A
Karen, she’s a silver sun,
           E
You’d best walk her away
    F#       Eb7/G    G#m
And watch it shining.
          E                    F# F#sus4 F#
Watch her watch the morning come.
  E             B/Eb
A silver tear appearing now
    G#m7 C#7 C#m7    F#7
I’m crying, ain’t I?
    B       G#m7 C#m7 F#7sus4 B
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: B | B

      B                 Aadd9
There ain’t no doubt in noone’s mind
     E                 F#     Eb7/G  G#m
That love’s the finest thing around.
        E                   F#   F#add9
Whisper something soft and kind.
    E                B/Eb
And hey, babe, the sky’s on fire,
    G#m7 C#7 C#m7   F#7
I’m dying, ain’t I?
    B       G#m7 C#m7 F#7sus4 B
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: B | B

Chorus:
     B              E       C#m7 F#add9
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     E                 F#add9
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     C#m7                    F#
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     B             F#/Bb  G#m       F#sus4
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        E      B/Eb   C#7
     To hit me from behind?
     F#7      B
     Yes, I’m gone
        G#m7 C#m7 F#7sus4 B
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: B | B

B               A
Dark and silent late last night,
          E
I think I might have heard
    F#      Eb7/G    G#m
The highway calling.
               E                    F# F#add9
Geese in flight and dogs that bite.
    E                   B/Eb
The signs that might be omens say
    G#m7 C#7   C#m7 F#7sus4
I’m going, I’m going,
    B       G#m7 C#m7 F#7sus4 B
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: B | B

          E            F#
   With a Holy host of others
              G#m
   Standing around me,
   Ebm              C#m
   Still I’m on the dark side
          E     F#
   Of the moon.
          A
   And it seems like
           E               B
   It goes on like this forever.
               A        C#m7/G# C#m7
   You must forgive me…
   F#7sus4       B
   If I’m up and gone
      G#m7 C#m7 F#sus4 B
   To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: B | B

     B              E       C#m7 F#
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.

     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     C#m7                    F#
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     B             F#/Bb  G#m       F#
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        E      B/Eb   C#7
     To hit me from behind?
     F#7sus4  B
     Yes, I’m gone

     To Carolina in my mind.

     E        B/Eb    C#m7
     Say nice things about me,

     I’m gone…
