Intro C Dm Em Dm C
Verse 1
[C]Carolyn [Dm]let me tell you what I heard [Em]about a man today
He [F]didn't come home from work and he [C]went away
[Dm] 'Til he came to a [C]city, [F]bright in the [G7]nightime like [C]day
Verse 2
[C]There they say he met up with some w[Dm]omen dressed in yellow and s[Em]carlet
Their [F]warm lips like a honeycomb, [C]dripped with honey
And [Dm]somethin' about the smell of [C]strange perfume
[Dm]Made him feel warm, [G7] and not [C]alone
Chorus 1
[C]Yes Carolyn a man will do that [F]sometimes on his own
And [C]sometimes [G7]when he's [C]lonely
I believe a man might do that [F]sometimes out of spite
But [C]Carolyn, a man will do that [G7]always
[F]When he's treated bad at [C]home [Dm][Em][Dm][C]
