[Intro]
| A | A | A | A |
| A | A | A |
 
[Verse 1]
D
  Where it began
G
  I can't begin to knowing.
D                                 A
  But then I know it's growing strong.
D
  Was in the spring
G
  and spring became the summer.
D                                  A  A
  Who'd have believed you'd come along.
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 D    Bm7
Hands,   touchin' hands,
A             G                      A A
 reachin' out, touchin' me touchin' you.
 
[Chorus]
  D        G
Sweet Caroline
                            A
good times never seemed so good.
D             G
I've been inclined
                       A
to believe they never would.
 
But now I.
 
[Verse 2]
D
  Look at the night
G
  and it don't seem so lonely.
D                            A
  We fill it up with only two.
D
  And when I hurt,
G
  hurtin' runs off my shoulders.
D                               A  A
  How can I hurt when holding you.
 
[Pre-Chorus]
D    Bm7
One,   touching' one,
A             G                      A A
 reachin' out, touchin' me touchin' you.
 
[Chorus]
  D        G
Sweet Caroline
                            A
good times never seemed so good.
D             G
I've been inclined
                       A
to believe they never would.
 
Oh, no, no.
 
[Bridge ]
| A | A | A | A |
| A | A       | A      |
One, two, sing with me.
 
[Chorus]
  D        G
Sweet Caroline
                            A
good times never seemed so good.
D             G
I've been inclined
                       A
to believe they never would.
  D        G
Sweet Caroline
                            A
good times never seemed so good.
 
[Outro]
A              D
   Sweet Caroline.

Bm instead of Bm7 sounds better for me. Also, I would suggest following: (It adds the lead tunes and it is playable without need of second guitar like this) [Intro] and [Bridge] e-|---------------------------------------------------|- B-|---------------------------------------------------|- G-|---------------------------------------------------|- D-|----2--4--5----2--4---5--4--2----5--4--2-----------|- A-|---------------------------------------------------|- E-|---------------------------------------------------|- -|---------------------------------------------------|- -|---------------------------------------------------|- -|---------4-------------4-------------4-------------|- -|---5--7----------5--7-----7--5----------7--5-------|- -|---------------------------------------------------|- -|---------------------------------------------------|- -|---------------------------------------------------|| -|----------------------------------------7---5------|| -|---4--6---7--------4--6---7----6-------------------|| -|---------------------------------------------------|| -|---------------------------------------------------|| -|---------------------------------------------------|| Right after every Verse and every Pre-Chorus this tab: A D e-|---------------------------------------------------|- B-|---------------------------------------------------|- G-|---------------------------------------------------|- D-|---------------------------------------------------|- A-|----0---2---4---5----------------------------------|- E-|---------------------------------------------------|- In Chorus after 1st and 3th row this tab: G G e-|----3--2-------------------------------------------|- B-|----------0----------------------------------------|- G-|---------------------------------------------------|- D-|---------------------------------------------------|- A-|---------------------------------------------------|- E-|---------------------------------------------------|- In Chorus after 2nd and 4th row this tab: A A e-|---------------------------------------------------|- B-|----------2----------------------------------------|- G-|----2--4-------------------------------------------|- D-|---------------------------------------------------|- A-|---------------------------------------------------|- E-|---------------------------------------------------|- Alternatively in Chorus 5th row: A e-|---------------------------------------------------|- B-|---------------------------------------------------|- G-|---------------------------------------------------|- D-|---------------------------------------------------|- A-|---0-----------------------------------------------|- E-|------3--2--0--------------------------------------|-
