Intro.: |(C)(G)|(D)(Em)|(C)(G)|(D) ---
It was (C) laying pennies on the (G)rail's and (D) sneaking off to (Em)chew Red Man
It was a (C)Friday night win and (G)followed by a Saturday (D)bruise
It was a (C)first Blue Ribbon my (G)dad and I drank, (D)baptized on (Em) Glenville lake
A (C)tear in our eyes the (G)night we lost all we had to (D)lose
(Chorus)
That to-(G)bacco town where I grew up, the (C)tailgate down on a jacked up truck
A (Em)ring we earned 'cause we owned that state, a (D)tombstone with my daddy's name
Now the (G)six string dream on a crazy course has (C)got my compass losing North
And I (Em)need someone to re-(D)mind me who I (C)am, --- oh, Carolina can
Solo: |(C)(G)|(D)(Em)|(C)(G)|(D)
It was (C)faded blue denim on (G)Franklin Street, a "(D)He's Not" buzz, a (Em)house band beat
It was a (C)summer heat dragging (G)me to a fifth year (D)fall
It was (C)classes skipped cause the (G)room couldn't teach
what we (D)learned three days (Em)on Wrightsville beach
With my (C)high school love, (G)short hair and that sweet (D)hometown southern drawl
(Chorus)
That to-(G)bacco town where I grew up, the (C)tailgate down on a jacked up truck
A (Em)ring we earned 'cause we owned that state, a (D)tombstone with my daddy's name
Now the (G)six string dream on a crazy course has (C)got my compass losing North
And I (Em)need someone to re-(D)mind me who I (C)am, yeah, Carolina can
Solo: |(C)(G)|(D)(Em) Carolina can |(C)(G)|(D) |(C)(G)|(D)(Em)|(C)(G)|(D) ---
Now (C)two time zones, (G)ten states away, (D) another night, an-(Em)other show to play
Oh (C)hey Mr. Taylor, (G)she ain't only (D)on your mind
(Chorus)
That to-(G)bacco town where I grew up, the (C)tailgate down on a jacked up truck
A (Em)ring we earned 'cause we owned that state, a (D)tombstone with my daddy's name
Now the (G)six string dream on a crazy course has (C)got my compass losing North
And I (Em)need someone to re-(D)mind me who I (C)am
(Tag)
Yeah, when I (Em)need someone to re-(D)mind me who I (C)am
Yeah, Carolina (C)can, (G) (D) (Em) Carolina (C)can, (G) (D) Carolina can
