Intro: C# D# C# G#

F#           G#    
Sometimes I think about you 
A#m                                G#                   C#
Wonder if you're out there somewhere thinkin' 'bout me 
F#                  G#
And would you even recognize
A#m                  G#                    C#
the woman that your little girl has grown up to be 
             F#                 C#                 
Cause I look in the mirror and all I see 
    D#                       C#
are your brown eyes lookin' back at me 
            F#                    C#            G#
They're the only thing you ever gave to me at all 


      C#                  D#       C#  G#
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California 
        F#              G#              C#
There's sunny skies as far as eye can see 
       C#              D#       C#  G#
If you ever come back home to Carolina 
F#        G#                 C#      D#  C# G#
I wonder what you'd say to me 


F#                 G#
I think about how it ain't fair 
A#m                        G#                 C#
that you weren't there to braid my hair like mothers do 
F#                     G#
You weren't around to cheer me on 
A#m                   G#                    C#
Help me dress for my high school prom like mother's do 
        F#              C#                D#                C#
Did you think I didn't need you here to hold my hand, to dry my tears 
        F#            C#                    G#
Did you even miss me through the years at all?

Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California 
        F#              G#              C#    G#
There's sunny skies as far as eye can see 
       C#              D#       C#  G#
If you ever come back home to Carolina 
F#        G#                 C#
I wonder what you'd say to me


A#m          F#                 C#
F#orgiveness is such a simple word 
         D#          C#
But it's so hard to do 
G#                              
When you've been hurt 

      C#                  D#       C#  G#
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California 
    F#                   G#               C#   G#
And just in case you're wonderin' about me 
     C#              D#     C#  G#
From now on I won't be in Carolina 
     F#              G#
Your little girl is off, 
     A#m             D#
your little girl is off, 
     F#              G#
your little girl is off 
               C# D# C# G#   F# G# C#
To Tennessee
