Lyrics and Music by James Taylor


Intro: G# | C# C#maj | Bbm7 | Eb7sus4

Chorus:
     G#             C#      C#maj Bbm7 Eb
     In my mind I’m gone to Carolina.
     C#                Eb
     Can’t you see the sunshine?
     Bbm7                    Eb7sus4 Eb
     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     G#            Eb     Fm        Ebsus4
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        C#     G#      Bb7
     To hit me from behind?
     Eb7      G#
     Yes, I’m gone
        Fm7  Bbm7 Eb7sus4 G#
     To Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G# | G#

G#             F#
Karen, she’s a silver sun,
           C#
You’d best walk her away
    Eb       C7       Fm
And watch it shining.
          C#                   Eb Ebsus4 Eb
Watch her watch the morning come.
  C#            G#  
A silver tear appearing now
    Fm7  Bb7 Bbm7    Eb7
I’m crying, ain’t I?
    G#      Fm7  Bbm7 Eb7sus4 G#
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G# | G#

      G#                F#add9
There ain’t no doubt in noone’s mind
     C#                Eb     C7     Fm
That love’s the finest thing around.
        C#                  Eb   Ebadd9
Whisper something soft and kind.
    C#               G#  
And hey, babe, the sky’s on fire,
    Fm7  Bb7 Bbm7   Eb7
I’m dying, ain’t I?
    G#      Fm7  Bbm7 Eb7sus4 G#
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     G#            Eb     Fm        Ebsus4
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine

Instrumental: G# | G#

G#              F#
Dark and silent late last night,
          C#
I think I might have heard
    Eb      C7       Fm
The highway calling.
               C#                   Eb Ebadd9
Geese in flight and dogs that bite.
    C#                  G#  
The signs that might be omens say
    Fm7  Bb7   Bbm7 Eb7sus4
I’m going, I’m going,
    G#      Fm7  Bbm7 Eb7sus4 G#
I’m gone to Carolina in my mind.

Instrumental: G# | G#

          C#           Eb
   With a Holy host of others
              Fm
   Standing around me,
   Cm               Bbm
   Still I’m on the dark side
          C#    Eb
   Of the moon.
          F#
   And it seems like
           C#              G#
   It goes on like this forever.
               F#       Bbm7        
   You must forgive me…
   Eb7sus4       G#
   If I’m up and gone
      Fm7  Bbm7 Ebsus4 G#
   To Carolina in my mind.

     Can’t you see the sunshine?

     Can’t you just feel the moonshining?
     G#            Eb     Fm        Eb
     Ain’t it just like a friend of mine
        C#     G#     Bb7
     To hit me from behind?
