[Verse 1]
C#mI said I am no eEvil man then I paAused
As if convinced of what that meaEnt
C#mWell I brace myself and fEace my doubts
Not surpArised but unprepared
For such an aErduous descent
And if I evAer knew I loved you it was Ethen
C#mI said don't you hide your eEyes from me
I will wrecAk your guesswork worries one by Eone
C#mWhen they're buried in some deEep dark sea
You'll be mAine and so my mind had spun and spEun
But it was oAver by the time it had beEgun
[Chorus]
AOoh, Eooh
AOoh, Eooh
AOohE  B  A  
[Verse 2]
C#mYou said I will not chEase these storms
While our toAngues gave all our wickedness aEway
C#mAnd I said ours will be no hAollow home
No, made of sAtone these walls alone won't keep you Esafe
And with each dAownpour we discover what it Etakes
[Chorus]
AOoh, Eooh
AOoh, Eooh

C#mWell I said how can I carEry on?
All these wAaves don't make a sailor out of mEe
C#mYou'll set out with the mornEing sun
I'm alAone and slow to gather up my leEaveBsA  
Up in Aarms, it's just the god of thinning drEeams
[Chorus]
ACarolinEa, CAarolinEa
ADare I say these wEords fBor AyouAm  
I don't sEpeak unless BI meAan tEo
[Verse 4]
C#mSomeone told me all your sEails were raised
So I stood uApon the mooring of the bEay
BoAth eyes closed in hopes
Your colors haven't cEhanBgedA  
Both eyes closed in hopes
Your colors haven't chaEnged

C#m

[Intro]

E A

[Verse 1]

C#m E A

I said I am no evil man then I paused

As if convinced of what that meant

C#m E

Well I brace myself and face my doubts

Not surprised but unprepared

For such an arduous descent

A E

And if I ever knew I loved you it was then

C#m E

I said don't you hide your eyes from me

A E

I will wreck your guesswork worries one by one

C#m E

When they're buried in some deep dark sea

A E

You'll be mine and so my mind had spun and spun

A E

But it was over by the time it had begun

[Chorus]

A E

Ooh, ooh

A E

Ooh, ooh

A E B A

Ooh

[Verse 2]

C#m E

You said I will not chase these storms

A E

While our tongues gave all our wickedness away

C#m A

And I said ours will be no hollow home

A E

No, made of stone these walls alone won't keep you safe

A E

And with each downpour we discover what it takes

[Chorus]

A E

Ooh, ooh

A E

Ooh, ooh

A E B A Am

Ooh

E C#m B A E

[Verse 3]

C#m E

Well I said how can I carry on?

A E

All these waves don't make a sailor out of me

C#m E

You'll set out with the morning sun

A E B A

I'm alone and slow to gather up my leaves

A E

Up in arms, it's just the god of thinning dreams

[Chorus]

A E A E

Carolina, Carolina

A E B A Am

Dare I say these words for you

E B A E

I don't speak unless I mean to

[Verse 4]

C#m E

Someone told me all your sails were raised

A E

So I stood upon the mooring of the bay

Both eyes closed in hopes

E B A

Your colors haven't changed

Both eyes closed in hopes

Your colors haven't changed
