Verse 1
G Bm
Then the rains they came, from thick unbroken clouds
G Bm
And washed out all the names, from tired little towns
Am Am/G Am/F#
Yeah summer's gone away, to some California coast
Am/E D
Hey I don't mind I never saw around much anyway
G Bm
But I cannot be still, it's coursing through my veins
G Bm
The songs that never live, the songs that stayed the same
Am Am/G
And they turned around the truth, and they knocked you off your feet
Am/F# Am D
Yeah the world was on your back and you wouldn't carry that weight
Chorus
Play these notes on the low E & A strings, it's a typical Ian walkup in G.
E F# G B A
"captured their hearts"
G
Oh and Caroline you should
A7
Have captured their hearts while you still could
D D C
But you threw it away, did you really think that you'd live forever?
Caroline
Verse 3
G Bm
And one by one they fell, barely clinging to their names
G Bm
Technology overflowing, flowing from their brains
Am Am7/G Am7/F#
Till nobody knew the words, nobody knew to sing
Am7/E D
Nobody had the time to talk about it anyway
Chorus
G
Oh and Caroline you should
A7
Have captured their hearts while you still could
D D C
But you threw it away, did you really think that you'd live forever?
Em
Caroline
Bridge
Play these bass notes on the low E & A strings to walk into the bridge, similar to the chorus:
E F# G B A
Yeah they all just sold
E F# G B Am D Em
Yeah they all just sold you down the line
Am D Em D Am
And you're looking for forgiveness every time you shut your eyes
Em (or Am)D Am
Oh but you're faded and old did they never tell you
Instrumental
G C G C
Can't remember this off the top of my head, maybe
C C/B Am G D(?)
Oh, oh, oh,oh, yeah
Chorus
G
Oh and Caroline you should
A7
Have captured their hearts while you still could
D D C
But you threw it away, did you really think that you'd live forever?
G C G C
Caroline

Do you really think that you'll live forever
