Lyrics and Music by James Taylor


Intro: Bb | Eb Ebmaj | Cm7 | F7sus4

Chorus:
     Bb             Eb      Ebmaj Cm7 F
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     Eb                F
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Cm7                     F7sus4 F
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     Bb            F      Gm        Fsus4
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        Eb     Bb      C7
     To hit me from behind?
     F7       Bb
     Yes, I’m gone
        Gm7  Cm7  F7sus4 Bb
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: Bb | Bb

Bb             G#
Karen, she’s a silver sun,
           Eb
You’d best walk her away
    F        D7       Gm
And watch it shining.
          Eb                   F Fsus4 F
Watch her watch the morning come.
  Eb            Bb  
A silver tear appearing now
    Gm7  C7  Cm7     F7
I’m crying, ain’t I?
    Bb      Gm7  Cm7  F7sus4 Bb
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: Bb | Bb

      Bb                G#add9
There ain’t no doubt in noone’s mind
     Eb                F      D7     Gm
That love’s the finest thing around.
        Eb                  F    Fadd9
Whisper something soft and kind.
    Eb               Bb  
And hey, babe, the sky’s on fire,
    Gm7  C7  Cm7    F7
I’m dying, ain’t I?
    Bb      Gm7  Cm7  F7sus4 Bb
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: Bb | Bb

Chorus:
     Bb             Eb      Cm7  Fadd9
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     Eb                Fadd9
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Cm7                     F
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     Bb            F      Gm        Fsus4
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        Eb     Bb     C7
     To hit me from behind?
     F7       Bb
     Yes, I’m gone
        Gm7  Cm7  F7sus4 Bb
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: Bb | Bb

Bb              G#
Dark and silent late last night,
          Eb
I think I might have heard
    F       D7       Gm
The highway calling.
               Eb                   F Fadd9
Geese in flight and dogs that bite.
    Eb                  Bb  
The signs that might be omens say
    Gm7  C7    Cm7  F7sus4
I’m going, I’m going,
    Bb      Gm7  Cm7  F7sus4 Bb
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: Bb | Bb

          Eb           F
   With a Holy host of others
              Gm
   Standing around me,
   Dm               Cm
   Still I’m on the dark side
          Eb    F
   Of the moon.
          G#
   And it seems like
           Eb              Bb
   It goes on like this forever.
               G#       Cm7         
   You must forgive me…
   F7sus4        Bb
   If I’m up and gone
      Gm7  Cm7  Fsus4 Bb
   To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: Bb | Bb

Chorus:
     Bb             Eb      Cm7  F
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     Eb                F
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Cm7                     F
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     Bb            F      Gm        F
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        Eb     Bb     C7
     To hit me from behind?
     F7sus4   Bb
     Yes, I’m gone
             Eb Bb  Cm7  F7sus4 Bb
     To Carolina in my mind.

     Gone, I’m gone, I’m gone.

     Eb       Bb      Cm7
     Say nice things about me,
         F7sus4  Bb F   Gm7      F
     ’Cause I’m gone southbound.
     Eb    Bb     Cm
     Carry on without me,
