O CAROLINE by Matching Mole
Words by Robert Wyatt, Music by David Sinclair
Transcription by Ludovic Iglesias (ludovic.igloo.iglesias@wanadoo.fr)

The song is probably a bit speed-up so the chords are quite unusual if you
want to play with the record. But if you want to play it on a guitar you
can easily change the chords one half tone below and you'll get a more
classical C G Am Em Dm C Dm G for the verse.
On the chorus there's a permanent C# bass note and the end of the line
noted "riff B" can be played on guitar like that :

C#          G#             A#m        Fm
David's on piano, and I may play on a drum
       D#m                  C#              D#m             G#
And we'll try to make the music work, we'll try to have some fun
But I just can't help thinking that if you were here with me
I'd get all my thoughts in focus and play more excitingly
C#             B/C#          F#/C#           Riff B
I love you still - Caroline
I want you still - Caroline
C#             B/C#          F#/C#           Riff B   C# C#4
I need you still - Caroline

If you call this sentimental crap you'll make me mad
Cause you know that I would not sing about some passing fad
And if my attempts at rhyming aren't convincing to your ear
Then memories betray you through the passing of the year
I love you still - Caroline
I want you still - Caroline
I need you still - Caroline

You must think it doubtful that I mean the words I sing
Or that all attempts to reach you this way could not mean a thing
But you must admit we both thought we'd be man and wife
And that I could make you happy for the best part of your life
I love you still - Caroline
I love you still - Caroline
