Caroline Chords

There is an other version of this song !!!
 
        D
You were born in St. Claire’s hospital 
G                             D
I say you were born up in the sky 
         D
You come floatin’ down over New Orleans 
       G                                 D
To the sweet green levee on the riverside 
         A
And your voice shined like your Sunday shoes 
    G
And momma always said we had nothing to lose 
D         A                       G
And so we danced on the street corner
 
Chorus:
   D    G
Oh Caroline (Caroline)
G                                  D
Heartbroken hard times, they never got us down 
G                             D            Bm
Walkin’ the same line through every shady southern town 
A                                  G(ring)                    D
Hand in hand your arm ‘round mine, Caroline you do just fine
 
            D
We were the Gasshouse gang 
G                                   D
I’ll be Ozzie Smith you be Sarah my wife 
            D
‘Til we got traded away 
       G                                      D
To the Red Clay League somewhere along the Georgia line
A
You’d be the pitcher and the catcher too 
        G
I’m the home run king ‘fore his muscles grew 
D               A              G
Gonna knock the cover off this time
 
(Chorus)
 
        D
Well I called you the other day 
G                                          D
It sounded like you’d been up all night crying 
            D
I used to wonder if we 
           G                                            D
Had really run away would they discover where we were hiding
             A
Oh but there ain’t no way we could be so free 
        G          D
as we were back in 83
             A              G
So what’s the use of even trying
 
Chorus/Outro
 
   D    G
Oh Caroline (Caroline) 
  G                            D
I seen it all change, watch it change some more 
G                        D                  Bm
Seen hard times standin’ right outside your door 
    A                             G(ring)
But I’d say you do just fine, you do just fine
        D
Oh Caroline
