Lyrics and Music by James Taylor


Intro: A | D D | Bm7 | E7

Chorus:
     A              D            Bm7  E
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     D                 E
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Bm7                     E7     E
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     A             E      F#m       E
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        D      A       B7
     To hit me from behind?
     E7       A
     Yes, I’m gone
        F#m7 Bm7  E7     A
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: A | A

A              G
Karen, she’s a silver sun,
           D
You’d best walk her away
    E        C#7      F#m
And watch it shining.
          D                    E
Watch her watch the morning come.
  D             A
A silver tear appearing now
    F#m7 B7  Bm7     E7
I’m crying, ain’t I?
    A       F#m7 Bm7  E7     A
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: A | A

      A                 G
There ain’t no doubt in noone’s mind
     D                 E      C#7    F#m
That love’s the finest thing around.
        D                   E
Whisper something soft and kind.
    D                A
And hey, babe, the sky’s on fire,
    F#m7 B7  Bm7    E7
I’m dying, ain’t I?
    A       F#m7 Bm7  E7     A
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: A | A

Chorus:
     A              D       Bm7  E
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     D                 E
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Bm7                     E
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     A             E      F#m       E
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        D      A      B7
     To hit me from behind?
     E7       A
     Yes, I’m gone
        F#m7 Bm7  E7     A
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: A | A

A               G
Dark and silent late last night,
          D
I think I might have heard
    E       C#7      F#m
The highway calling.
               D                    E
Geese in flight and dogs that bite.
    D                   A
The signs that might be omens say
    F#m7 B7    Bm7  E7
I’m going, I’m going,
    A       F#m7 Bm7  E7     A
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: A | A

          D            E
   With a Holy host of others
              F#m
   Standing around me,
   C#m              Bm
   Still I’m on the dark side
          D     E
   Of the moon.
          G
   And it seems like
           D               A
   It goes on like this forever.
               G        Bm7
   You must forgive me…
   E7            A
   If I’m up and gone
      F#m7 Bm7  E     A
   To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: A | A

Chorus:
     A              D       Bm7  E
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     D                 E
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Bm7                     E
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     A             E      F#m       E
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        D      A      B7
     To hit me from behind?
     E7       A
     Yes, I’m gone

     To Carolina in my mind.

     Gone, I’m gone, I’m gone.

Instrumental: A E | F#m7 E

     D        A       Bm7
     Say nice things about me,
         E7      A E    F#m7     E
     ’Cause I’m gone southbound.
     D     A      Bm

     I’m gone…
