Intro

Bm A-G x2

D A Bm A-G A

D A

He said: "The storm is gettin' stronger,"

Bm A G A

As he climbed inside my truck.

D A

"I'm headed back to Carolina,

Bm A G A

"God's will an' any luck."

D A

An' he told me how he'd left his family,

Bm A G A

So many years ago.

D A

An' he'd seen the whole world on the shoulders,

Bm A G A

But now it's time to go back home.

D A

An' he said: "This road goes on forever:

Bm A G A

"I've been travellin' all my life.

D A

"An' I've seen the rain, I've felt the thunder,

Bm A G A

"But it never changed my mind:

D A Bm A-G A

"I'm goin' back to Caroline."

I dropped him off at the State line,

An' then I thought about my life.

An' everything I left behind me:

Two children an' my wife.

I left 'em waitin' for a 'phone call,

An' that was twenty days ago.

But now I'm in it for the long-haul,

An' it's time to go back home.

An' this damn road keeps gettin' longer:

I've been travellin' it some time.

An' I've seen the rain, I've felt the thunder roll on,

But it never changed my mind:

I'm goin' back to Caroline."

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Whoa, Lord, I'm going back to Caroline.

Whoa oh.
