We met on The Carolinian heading south from D.C.
D                          G              A
It's as if God himself had picked out our seats
    G                               D                   A
She smiled and said Richmond when I asked where she was bound
    D              F#m                    G    A       D
I began to wish my life away to have been born in that town

D                                             G               D
We talked a little bit and then she smiled, I saw down in her eyes
D                                  G                A
She wasn't just beautiful, she was kind and she was wise
      G                            D            A
But a woman down in Raleigh, would soon have my son
     D              F#m              G      A      D
So I waited for her station like the bullet from a gun

CHORUS:
                          A
She's in Richmond with my heart
G        A             D
 And I'm bound for Carolina
D                       A
Wish I'd never met this train
G       A                  D
 Or the girl that's left behind her

VERSE:
D                                       G                D
When the train reached the station, she looked me in the eye
D                                        G                 A
Said, come with me to Richmond and we'll start a brand new life
         G                      D            A
Well you know that moment still weighs on my mind
        D               F#m          G       A       D
Cause I took my body to Raleigh, and left my heart behind

CHORUS:
                          A
She's in Richmond with my heart
G        A             D
 And I'm bound for Carolina
D                       A
Wish I'd never met this train
G       A                  D
 Or the girl that's left behind her
D/C#        Bm    A
 Now we're apart
G                        A     N.C.                      D
 While I'm bound for Caroline, she's in Richmond with my heart

INTERLUDE:

A  G A D D/C#
Bm A G  A  D  D

VERSE:
D                                     G             D
My son is grown up to my hand, and he fills me with pride
D                                 G                     A
I take him down to the station to watch the trains roll by
         G                            D                   A
But that northbound Carolinian always makes the teardrops start
          D            F#m      G       A       D
Cause its headed up to Virginia where I left my heart

CHORUS:
                          A
She's in Richmond with my heart
G        A             D
 And I'm bound for Carolina
D                       A
Wish I'd never met this train
G       A                  D
 Or the girl that's left behind her
D/C#        Bm    A
 Now we're apart
G                        A     N.C.                      D  D/C#  Bm  A
 While I'm bound for Caroline, she's in Richmond with my heaaaaaaaart
C                      A     N.C.                      D
