♫ Verse 1:
D MajorD              G+G
I watched the taxi take her away
      A7A7            D MajorD
Through the window she was waving goodbye
             G+G
There wasn't much left to say
E minorEm            A7A7 G+G
Her last I love you was a lie

♫ Verse 2:
    A7A7      D MajorD      G+G
Did she leave me for somebody else
     A7A7     D MajorD  G+G
And just leave me behind
    A7A7     D MajorD
All she left me was by myself
  E minorEm      A7A7
And if that plane arrives on time

♫ Chorus:
D MajorD            G+G D MajorD
Charlotte's in North Carolina
G+G       A7A7    D MajorD
Back where she wanted to be
D MajorD            G+G D MajorD
Charlotte's in North Carolina
  E minorEm          A7A7    B minorBm
She left me here in Saint Louis in misery

♫ Verse 3:
D MajorD            G+G
I was kinda hoping she'd call
A7A7           D MajorD
Let me know she made it okay
                  G+G
Now that phone's driving me up the wall
E minorEm         A7A7 G+G
It hasn't rung all day

♫ Verse 4:
      A7A7        D MajorD     G+G
I hope she finds what she's looking for
        A7A7     D MajorD G+G
That's all that matters to me
       A7A7       D MajorD
Cause all it cost me was my heart
  E minorEm           A7A7
To set my sweet Charlotte free
