Carolina In The Pines Chords

There aren't a lot of good alternatives to Carolina in the Pines if you don't like playing out of
the key of A. As a Banjo player I took the best alternative I could find and changed a chord or
two to make it sound like the original to the best I could.
 
CAPO 4
 
 G              D7
She came to me said she knew me
           C                G
Said she'd known me a long time
           Am               Bm
And she talked of being in love
      C                    G
With every mountain she had climbed.
G                              D7
And she talked of trails she'd walked up
   C                G
Far above the timberline
          Am                  Bm
From that night on I knew I'd write songs
    C                G             C             G
For Carolina in the pines.
 
 
G              D7
There's a new moon on the fourteenth
  C                G
First quarter twenty-first
         Am                  Bm
And a full moon in the last week
     C                    G
Brings a fullness to the earth.
G                              D7
There's no guess work in the clockwork
  C                G
Of the world's heart or mine
         Am                  Bm
There are nights I only feel right
   C                G             C             G
With Carolina in the pines.
 
 
G                       D7
As the frost grows on the windows
 C                G
The wood stove smokes and glows
        Am                  Bm
As the fire glows we can warm our souls
    C                    G
Makin' rainbows in the coals.
G                       D7
And we talk of trails we walk up
C                G
Far above the timberline
       Am                  Bm
There are nights I only feel right
  C                G             C             G
With Carolina in the pines.
