Verse 1
Well I went[D] down to Houston and I stopped in San Antone[G][D]
I pa[(D)]ssed up the station for the bus[A]
Was tr[G]ying to find me something but I wasn[D]'t sure just what[Bm][A][G]
Man I ended [D]up with pockets full of du[A]st[D]
Verse 2 (same chords):
So I went on to Cleveland and I ended up insane
Bought a borrowed suit and learned to dance
I was spendin' money like the way it likes to rain
Man I ended up with pockets full of cane
Chorus:
Oh my swe-[Bm]eet Caro[G]lina, what c[D]ompels[Bm] me to go[G][A]
Oh my swe-e[Bm]et disp[G]osition, may you on[D]e day carry me home[Bm][A][G]
(repeat intro)
Verse 3:
I ai[D]n't never been to Vegas but I gambled up my life[G][D]
Bui[(D)]lding newsprint boats I raced to sewer mains[A]
T[G]rying to find me something but I was[D]n't sure just what[Bm][A][G]
Funny how t[D]hey say that some things never chang[A]e[D]
(repeat chorus)
(piano break)

[D] [A] [D] [A] [G]
Verse 4:
Up here in the city, it feels like things are closin' in
The sunset's just my light bulb burning out
I miss Kentucky and I miss my family
All the sweetest winds they blow across the south
(repeat chorus)
May you one day c[Bm]arry me ho___[A]_me.[D][G]
