# Lou Reed: Caroline Says II
###########################################
# NOTES:
within the verse lines Lou Reed appears to play a standard Bm chord
between C and Am; I prefer playing this as an Cmaj7/E, i.e. Em with
an additional first fret on the B string
INTRO:
C Bm Am G (2x)
VERSE:
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
Caroline says,
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
As she gets up off the floor
C Em Am Em Am
Why is it that you beat me,
D G
It isn't any fun
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
Caroline says,
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
As she makes up her eye
C Em Am Em Am
You've ought to learn more about your-self,
D G
Think more than just I
CHORUS:
C F G
But she's not a-fraid to die
C F G
All of her friends call her Alaska
C F
When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her
C F C G
What is in her mind
C F C G
What is in her mind
VERSE:
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
Caroline says,
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
As she gets up from the floor
C Em Am Em Am
You can hit me all you want to,
D G
But I don't love you any-more
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
Caroline says,
C Cmaj7/E Am F (G)
While biting her lip
C Em Am Em Am
Life is meant to be more than this,
D G
And this is a bum trip
CHORUS:
C F G
But she's not a-fraid to die
C F G
All of her friends call her Alaska
C F
When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her
C F C G
What is in her mind
C F C G
What is in her mind
BRIDGE:
Dm G C F C
She put her fist through the window pane
Dm G
It was such a funny feeling
CHORUS 2:
C F G
It's so cold in Alaska
C F G
It's so cold in Alaska
C F G
It's so cold in Alaska
