Carolina Rain – Isn’t She
Capo first fret
This is my first attempt at this…. Comments, corrections, critique welcome.
Intro
, , x2
Isn't she supposed to be in California
Yea, yea, yeah, yeah
Man in the mirror said, 'Boy, I tried to warn 'ya'
Yea, yea, yeah, yeah
Pre Chorus
I know there's no one here but me
So why do I still feel her
Chorus
Isn't she long gone by now
I heard she was livin' in a West Coast town
Sellin' margaritas from a tiki hut on the beach (yeah)
Didn't I see with my own eyes
That bus pulled away as she waved goodbye
I know I did
But somethin' keeps tellin' me
She's back again… Isn't she
2nd Verse
On the other side of the Rockies
Yea, yea, yeah, yeah
So how's it possible I can hear her talkin'
Yea, yea, yeah, yeah
Pre Chorus
Must be my heart playin' tricks on me
I keep askin' myself why
Chorus
Isn't she long gone by now
I heard she was livin' in a West Coast town
Sellin' margaritas from a tiki hut on the beach (yeah)
Didn't I see with my own eyes
That bus pulled away as she waved goodbye
I know I did
But somethin' keeps tellin' me
She's back again… Isn't she
Bridge
I know that's her perfume (isn't she)
Right here in this room
Isn't she, yeah
During Solo:
listen for the timing
Pre Chorus
I know there's no one here but me
So why do I still feel her
Chorus
Isn't she long gone by now
I heard she was livin' in a West Coast town
Sellin' margaritas from a tiki hut on the beach (yeah)
Didn't I see with my own eyes
That bus pulled away as she waved goodbye
I know I did
But somethin' keeps tellin' me
She's back again… Isn't she
Em, A, G until the end, like in the verse, listen for the timing.
