Capo 2nd
D C9 G D C9 G D C9 G D (HOLD)
Em9 C9 G/B
Little roadside restaurant we artfully complain
Em9 C9 G/B
Groovy tells the waitress that his chicken died in vain
Em9 C9 G/B
Most every day goes by according to design
Em9 D/F# G A
I live this dream and still it seems I have you on my mind
[Chorus:]
G D
From the bottom of my heart
A D
Off the coast of Carolina
G D
After one or two false starts
Bm A
I believe we found our stride
G D
And the walls that won't come down
A D
We can decorate or climb
G D
Or find some way to get around
Bm Em
Cause I'm still on your side
G D
From the bottom of my heart.
D C9 G D C9 G D C9 G D (HOLD)
Em9 C9 G/B
I can't see the future but I know it's coming fast
Em9 C9 G/B
It's not that hard to wind up knee-deep in the past
Em9 C9 G/B
There come alot of Mondays since that phone booth that first night
Em9 D/F# G A
Tears and miles and years and smiles I wanna get it right
.
G D
From the bottom of my heart
A D
Off the coast of Carolina
G D
After one or two false starts
Bm A
I believe we found our stride
G D
And the walls that won't come down
A D
We can decorate or climb
G D
Or find some way to get around
Bm Em
Cause I'm still on your side
G D
From the bottom of my heart.
[Music Bridge]
Em9 C9 G/B
These days I get up about the time I used to go to bed
Em9 C9 G/B
Living large was once the deal now I watch the stars instead
Em9 C9 G/B
They're timeless and predictable unlike most things that I do
Em9 D/F# G A
I tell the wind and my old friend I'm headed home to you.
G D
From the bottom of my heart
A D
Off the coast of Carolina
G D
After one or two false starts
Bm A
I believe we found our stride
G D
And the walls that won't come down
A D
We can decorate or climb
G D
Or find some way to get around
Bm Em
Cause I'm still on your side
G D
From the bottom of my heart.
