Dm F C
I dreamed of the day when I'd hold you in my arms again
G/B
Read you all the letters I wrote but never sent
Dm F
Give you all the pieces of me
C G/B
To put 'em back together Put them back together again
Dm F
Life has a way of writing your story for you
C G/B
And the hero doesn't always get his girl
Dm F C
What if you could change the ending to the novel they been writing
G/B
Leave no resolution
[Chorus]
Dm F
So, Goodbye Carolina,
Dm F
searched my whole life to find you
Dm F
I hate to leave you but I hope you'll know
C
Where I'm going I'll be seeing you
Dm F
So hold my hand as I'm leaving
Dm F
Hoped my pain would be enough reason
Dm F
I'll see you on the other side of the Blue Ridge sky
C G/B
But now I'm going Hate to tell you goodbye
[Bridge]

[Verse]
Dm F C
Say it takes a selfish man to leave on out from his old hometown
G/B
Without saying why he's going
Dm F C
But you can come take the rest of me Early in the morning
G/B
Tell me your goodbyes
Dm F C
Where I'm going I won't have these reminders of what I lost
G/B
What was taken away from me
Dm F C
And I hope you'll understand I was a broken man in my own hometown
G/B
Need to find my own peace
[Chorus]
Dm F Dm F
So, Goodbye Carolina, searched my whole life to find you
Dm F
I hate to leave you but I hope you'll know
C
Where I'm going I'll be seeing you
Dm F
So hold my hand as I'm leaving
Dm F
Hoped my pain would be enough reason
Dm F
I'll see you on the other side of the Blue Ridge sky
C G/B
But now I'm going Hate to tell you goodbye
