E Ab-7
Meet a girl I met Carolina
B-7 A E
her parents jumped off Niagra Falls
Ab-7
she broke her hips when she was a baby
B-7 A E
trying to hop the Berlin wall
Ab-7
it's not that she's anti-American
B-7 A E
Although she shot a mayor at nine
Ab-7
he looked just like the prez on T.V
B-7 A E
she didn't know in '63 he had died
A-7 E
Does she think this world is all wrong
A-7 E
Does she think I'll rob her and run
A-7 E
When I ask where she gets her gun
B5
And simply says scat boy scat scat
B-7(9,11) E
But isn't it a wonderful world Carolina
B-7(9,11) E
Look at the birds in the sky
B-7(9,11) E
Jehovah made this whole joint for you
Carolina Ab-7 Db-7 Gb- E
And isn't it so wonderful to be alive
So original in her black lipstick
Listening to some obscure band
But isn't she pissed at all the other
non-conformists who listen to that same
obscure band
But thats OK shes helping the enviroment
By sipping on pure water and such
Then screams we better start thinking
about the OZone layer, While tossing out a
styrofoam cup
Does she think this world is all wrong
Does she think I'll rob her and run
When I ask her where she gets her gun
She simply says scat boy scat scat
But isn't it a wonderful world Carolina
Look at the birds in the sky
Jehovah made this whole joint for you
Carolina So isn't it so wonderful to be alive
G B5
Real deep s*** on her mind
"Let's kill the world, take over everything"
G B5
She says "We dont need politicians, they
breed mistrust, And as a matter of fact
did you steal my purse?"
B-7(9,11) E
Yeah, but isn't it a wonderful world
Carolina B-7(9,11) E
look at the birds in the sky
B-7(9,11) E

B-7(9,11) E
Yeah, but isn't it a wonderful world
Carolina B-7(9,11) E
look at the birds in the sky
