CAPO: 3


Intro: C majorC G+G A minorAm  (4x)

verse 1
C majorC      G+G        A minorAm
I stopped in Statesville for you
   C majorC     G+G        A minorAm
When I could?ve driven straight through
    C majorC       G+G    A minorAm
But the call from the exit was loud
   C majorC      G+G             A minorAm
And I gave in too proud to be scared by the boo
C majorC      G+G        A minorAm
I stopped in Statesville for you
C majorC  G+G  A minorAm
Oooh oooh oooh

verse 2
      C majorC       G+G        A minorAm
Where they tore down the high school last year
    C majorC      G+G      A minorAm
And the line between fiction and fact isn?t clear
    C majorC      G+G     A minorAm
Someone told me old Dooley was hung on the hill
     C majorC    G+G       A minorAm
You can?t always believe what you hear
   C majorC       G+G        A minorAm
They tore down the high school last year
C majorC  G+G  A minorAm
Oooh oooh oooh
C majorC  G+G  A minorAm
Oooh oooh oooh


verse 3
   C majorC     G+G     A minorAm
I?ve always had reason to roam
  C majorC     G+G     A minorAm
If we?d ever met then, you would?ve known
    C majorC       G+G      A minorAm
But my plan for this trip was in three, stand up, smile
  C majorC     G+G   A minorAm
And leave Carolina alone
C majorC     G+G   A minorAm
Leave Carolina alone


verse 4
  C majorC      G+G        A minorAm
But I stopped in Statesville for you
   C majorC      G+G        A minorAm
When I should?ve driven straight through
    C majorC       G+G    A minorAm
But the call from the exit was loud
   C majorC      G+G             A minorAm
And I gave in too proud to be scared by the boo
C majorC      G+G        A minorAm  C majorC  G+G  A minorAm
I stopped in Statesville for you
