        |A              |A2         |
She came to me, said she knew me
          |D              |A       |
Said she'd known me a long time
       |D             |C#m        |
And she spoke of being in love
          |Bm              |A      |
With every mountain she had climbed
       |A                     |A2         |
And she talked of trails she'd walked up
    |D              |A       |
Far above the timber line
         |D                  |C#m           |
From that night on I knew I'd write songs
        |Bm         |A      |
With Carolina in the pines

         |A              |A2         |
There's a new moon on the fourteenth
     |D                 |A       |
First quarter the twenty-first
       |D               |C#m        |
And the full moon in the last week
        |Bm              |A      |
Brings a fullness to this earth
          |A               |A2         |
There's no guesswork in the clockwork
       |D                |A       |
All the worlds are -- all mine
         |D            |C#m        |
There are nights I only feel right
        |Bm         |A      |
With Carolina in the pines

        |A                 |A2         |
When the frost shows on the windows
       |D                    |A       |
And the wood stove smokes and glows
      |D                 |C#m            |
As the fire grows we will warm our souls
        |Bm             |A      |
Watching rainbows in the cold
         |A                |A2         |
And we'll talk of trails we walked up
    |D              |A       |
Far above the timber line
         |D            |C#m          |
There are nights I only feel right
        |Bm         |A       |
With Carolina in the pines
