Apologies to Michael Martin Murphy. I just love this song. It really makes me happy. Hopefully it'll bring a smile to you. I was laughing because I tried about 3 takes on this one and kept flubbing the words and just completely messed up on the chords between the verses. But, hey it still makes me smile.
Carolina in the Pines by Michael Martin Murphy.
She came to me,said she new me
said she'd know me a long time
And she spoke of being in love
With every mountain she had climed
And she talked of trails she' walked up
Far above the timber line
From that night on i knew i'd write songs
With Carolina in the pines
Theres a new moon on the 14th
First quarter the 21st
And the full moon in the last week
Brings a fullness to this earth
Theres no guesswork in the clockwork
All the worlds are all mine
There are nights i only feel right
With Carolina in the pines
When the frost shows on the window
And the wood stove smokes and glows
As the fire grows we will warm ourselves
Watching rainbows in the cold
And we'll talk of trails we walked up
Far above the timber line
There are nights i only feel right
With Carolina in the pines
I luv MMM! Why don't you do Wild Fire or anything else by him? Good job on this song! Glad to see you had fun doing it.... That's what singing is all about!
