Carolyn chords by Merle Haggard

Chords with lyrics

C majorC    DmDm               E minorEm
Carolyn let me tell you what I've heard about a man today

  FF                 C majorC    DmDm
He didn't come home from work and he went away

         C majorC  FF       G7G7       C majorC
Till he came to a city bright in the night time like day

                  DmDm              E minorEm
There they say he met up with some women dressed in yellow and scarlet


   FF             C majorC
Their warm lips like a honeycomb dripped with honey

DmDm              C majorC       DmDm
Something about the smell of strange perfume

       G7G7      C majorC
Made him feel warm and not alone

                FF
Yes Carolyn a man will do that sometimes on his own


  C majorC    G7G7     C majorC
And sometimes when he's lonely

                   FF
And I believe that man might do that sometimes out of spite

  C majorC             G7G7  FF
But Carolyn a man will do that always

             C majorC
