Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Well I went down to Houston
and I [G]stopped in San Antone
[D]I passed up the station for the bus[A][D]
[A]Was try[G]ing to find me [D]something but
I was[Bm]n't sure [D]just w[G]hat
[D]I ended up with pockets full of dust

[Verse 2]
So [D]I went on to Cleveland
and [G]ended up insane
[D]Bought a borrowed suit
and learned [A]to dance
[G]I was spending mon[D]ey like
[Bm]the way it likes [D]to [G]rain
And [D]I ended up with [A]pockets
full [D]of 'caine

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Oh my [G]sweet Caro[D]lina[Bm]
What com[G]pels me [A]to go?
[D]Oh [Bm]my sw[G]eet disposit[D]ion
May you one day carry [G]me
home
[D]

[Verse 4]
I ain't never been to Vegas but
[G]I gambled up [D]my life
Building news print boats
I raced in sewer mains
[A]I was try[G]ing to find me [D]something
but I was[Bm]n't sure [A]just w[G]hat
Funny [D]how they say that some
[A]things never [D]change

[Verse 5]
[Bm]Oh my [G]sweet Caro[D]lina[Bm]
What com[G]pels me to [A]go?
Oh my [Bm]sweet [G]dispositio[D]n
May you one day [A]carry [G]me home

[D][A][G][D][G][D]

[Verse 6]
[D]Up here in the city it feels
[G]like things are closing [D]in
The sunset's just my light bulb burning [A]out
[G]I miss Kentuc[D]ky and I miss my [Bm]family[G]
All [D]the sweetest winds they
blow across the south

[Verse 7]
[Bm]Oh my [G]sweet Carolin[D]a[A][Bm]
What com[G]pels me [A]to go?
[Bm]Oh my [G]sweet disposi[D]tion
May you one day [A]carry [G]me home
May you [Bm]one day [A]carry [D]me home
[G]
