Every scream went bleeding through these paper walls 
 G   C    Am    C
and all the make-up in the world couldn't hide the scars
 G    C          AmC
I leave today, I'm packing light: a suitcase, some toiletries
     G      C           AmC
The rolling hills and willow trees of Carolina wait for me




 G  C  AmC
You never learned, the rules have changed since we were nine
 G   C Am      C
This isn't school: boys don't assault the girls they like
     G C      Am       C
The taste of blood, the claim of love: these two will here on cease to be
  GC        Am       C
sprouting from your fists and tongue 'cause Carolina waits for me



 G  C    AmC
Fields of grain go whipping by from the window seat
 G     C     Am C
I'm drifting in, I'm drifting out catching up on sleep
   G   C   Am   C
 I couldn't get Indentured since the very crest of 17
    G    C     Am   C
I left my keys and broken dreams 'cause Carolina waits for me



 GC Am       C
I will never forgive a single day
 G      C      Am       C
Mile markers seem to call my name and say, 
      G  CAm  C
"you're safer now. Through every town, we'll light your way in reflective green 
G  C      Am            CG
all theway" The entire state of Carolina waits for me
