[Dm]I dreamed of the [F]day when I'd hold you in my [C]arms again
Read you all the [G/B]letters I wrote but never sent
[Dm]Give you all the [F]pieces of me
To put 'em back [C]together Put them back [G/B]together again
[Dm]Life has a way of [F]writing your story for you
And the hero[C] doesn't always get [G/B]his girl
[Dm]What if you could [F]change the ending to the novel they been [C]writing
Leave no [G/B]resolution

So, [Dm]Goodbye [F]Carolina,
[Dm]searched my whole life to [F]find you

Where I'm going I'll [C]be seeing you
[Dm]So hold my hand as I'm [F]leaving
[Dm]Hoped my pain would be enough [F]reason
[Dm]I'll see you on the other [F]side of the Blue Ridge sky

Verse
[Dm]Say it takes a selfish man [F]to leave on out from his old [C]hometown
Without saying why[G/B] he's going
[Dm]But you can come take [F]the rest of me Early in the [C]morning
Tell me your [G/B]goodbyes
[Dm]Where I'm going I won't [F]have these reminders of what I [C]lost
What was taken [G/B]away from me

Need to find my [G/B]own peace
