[Intro 1]
[Am][G][Am][F][G][Am]
[G][F][G]
[Am]Car

[Verse 1]
[G]oline,
[F]Caroline
I never could leave you to [G]struggle
[Am]Hold [G]the line, [F]hold the line
I'll be there on the [G]double
[Am]In t[G]ime, i[F]n time
Everyone does see [G]trouble
And you don't [F]need to know

[Verse 2]
why when you [G]cry
You don't [F]need to know why
You don't need to know
why when you [G]cry
[Am]Violet's [G]eyes,

[Verse 3]
[F]Violet plays
Going back home to the
[G]Great Lakes
Where the [F]cattail [G]sways
With the [F]lonesome loon
Riding that train in [G]late June
With the [F]windows wide by [G]my side

[Verse 4]
With the [Am]windows [F]wide
With the windows wide by my [G]side[Am][Gsus4]
[F][Gsus4][G][F][Am][Gsus4][F]

[Verse 5]
[Gsus4]
[G]And the clu[Am]sters f[G]ell,
[F]like an empty bell
Meteor shower at the [G]motel
Where the [F]empty [G]space
is a [F]saving grace
Making good time and [G]doing well
Still the question sings,
like [F]Saturn's rings
Maybe she knows and she [G]won't tell
But [F]you don't need to know

[Verse 6]
[F]why
when you [Gsus4]cry[G]
[F]You don't need to know why
You don't need to know why when you [G]cry[F][G]
[Am][F][Gsus4][G][F][Gsus4][G]
[F]

[Verse 7]
[Gsus4]
[G]And I find you there
in your [F]country flair
[G]Middle of the [F]river in a [G]lawn [Gsus4]chair
[G]With your wri[F]nkled han[G]ds
and your [F]silver hair
Leaving here soon and you [G]know where
To where the [Am]cattail [G]sways
with the [Am]lonesome [F]loon
You'll be riding that train in [G]late June

[Verse 8]
With [F]the windows [G]wide by your side
With the [Am]win d[F]ows wide
With the windows wide by your [G]side
You don't [F]need to [Am]know [F]why
You don't need to know why when you [G]cry
