Somewhere, Nowhere In Carolina Acordes por Lanie Gardner

[Intro]

[Verse]
C Bb F C                         
■ ■  ■ Been staring at my ceiling
Bb                     
Trying to find a reason
F                         
Why picking up this guitar
    F                   
Has gotten to be so hard
            C       
There was a time the
C                     
Sound of these strings
Bb                           
Would fix just about anything
F                
Maybe I was naive
F                   
Maybe I was thirteen
       C            Bb  
When I sang just to sing
           F           
Instead of living large
          F            
Sometimes I’d rather be


[Chorus]
C                                
Catching fireflies than love bugs
Bb                             
Telling stories instead of lies
F                                        
Skipping stones instead of getting stoned
          F                      
To try to find some peace of mind
C                                
Hopping ditches instead of planes
Bb                                    
Pulling wagons instead of these chains
          F                         
Sometimes instead of keeping this up
                                   C        Bb
I’d rather be somewhere nowhere in Carolina ■ 


[Verse]
F      C                   
■ When smokin’ and drinkin’
    Bb                      
Was just every other weekend
F                         
Sneaking out late at night
    F                        
Too young for the neon lights
               C                         
When the smell of wintergreen and cologne
    Bb                            
Was my uncle’s ‘seventynine bronco
         F                
When the road was a friend
    F            
I’d give anything
   F              
To live that again
      F          
Gotta get back to
       C         Bb     
When I sang just to sing
               Fmaj7     
I thought it’d do me good
   F                       
To write a song just for me
F               
So I’d rather be


[Chorus]
C                                
Catching fireflies than love bugs
Bb                             
Telling stories instead of lies
F                                        
Skipping stones instead of getting stoned
          F                      
To try to find some peace of mind
C                                
Hopping ditches instead of planes
Bb                                    
Pulling wagons instead of these chains
          F                         
Sometimes instead of keeping this up
                                   C       
I’d rather be somewhere nowhere in Carolina
Bb F       
■  Carolina
           Gsus4 Gm    Bb                
Maybe this city  ■  is getting to my head


[Bridge]
Fmaj7                               
But I’ll confess if the music’s dead
    F                         
And home is all I’ll have left
          Gm7 
It’d be a pity
      Bb                    
But I think I’d be just fine
           F             
I’d have a clear blue sky
    F             
And plenty of time
   F                
To hide and remember
      C         Bb     
Why I sang just to sing
                  Am    
Dreams would stay dreams
                 C 
But at least I’d be


[Chorus]
         C                       
Catching fireflies than love bugs
Bb                             
Telling stories instead of lies
F                                        
Skipping stones instead of getting stoned
          F                      
To try to find some peace of mind
C                                
Hopping ditches instead of planes
Bb                                    
Pulling wagons instead of these chains
          F                         
Sometimes instead of keeping this up
              F                            
I’d rather be somewhere nowhere in Carolina
