C                           F
Morning found me lying on a floor in New Orleans
G                                 C
Lookin like the patches that was about to eat my jeans
C                          F
Feelin like my belly was a warehouse for the blues
      G                              C
And I sure miss my sweet Cocaine Carolina

[Chorus]
F                          C
Met her on an ocean liner, called the Cocaine Carolina
G                             C            C7
She was quite a lady then and I was twenty two
F                               C
God knows how much I adore her, I just never could afford her
G                         C               C7
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?

    F                         C
So, goodbye Cocaine Carolina, you and I are through
G                                 C                  C7
I'm going back to Sandy Skag, she knows just what to do
F                               C
She don't love me for my money. She just wants my body, honey
G                         C               C7
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?

[Verse 2]
C                                F     
Oh, someone said if I was lucky, I could go back to Kentucky
G                            C
Lexington was famous for its bluegrass and its hills
C                                F
Carolina we should get up, don't you know we have to split up?
        G            C 
Maybe I should go to California ...

[Chorus]
F                         C
Goodbye Cocaine Carolina, you and I are through
G                                 C                  C7
I'm going back to Sandy Skag, she knows just what to do
F                               C
She don't love me for my money. She just wants my body, honey
G                         C               C7
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?

[Chorus]
    F                         C
Oh, goodbye Cocaine Carolina, you and I are through
G                                 C                  C7
I'm going back to Sandy Skag, she knows just what to do
F                               C
She don't love me for my money. She just wants my body, honey
G                         C               C7
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?

[Outro]
    F                         C
Oh, goodbye Cocaine Carolina, you and I are through
G                                 C                  C7
I'm going back to Sandy Skag, she knows just what to do
F                               C
She don't love me for my money. She just wants my body, honey
G                         C               C7
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?
