Intro
D G A D
[Verse 1]
D G
Morning found me lying on a floor in New Orleans
A D
Looking like the patches was about to eat my jeans
D G
Feeling like my belly was a warehouse for the blues
A D
And I sure miss my sweet Cocaine Carolina
D G
Met her on an ocean liner, called her Cocaine Carolina
A D
She was quite a lady then and I was twenty-two
D G
God knows how much I adored her, I just could not afford her
A D
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?
[Chorus]
G D
So goodbye Cocaine Carolina, you and I are through
A D
I'm going back to LA getting clean, what I need to do
G A D
She don't want me for my money, she just wants my body, honey
A D
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?
[Verse 2]
G D
Oh someone said if I was lucky, I could go to Kentucky
A D
Lexington was famous for its strip clubs and its pills
G
Carolina, we should get up
D
Don't you know we'll have to split up?
A D
Maybe I should go back to California
[Chorus]
G D
So goodbye Cocaine Carolina, you and I are through
A D
I'm going back to LA getting clean, what I need to do
G A D
She don't want me for my money, she just wants my body, honey
A D
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?
[Outro]
G D
A D
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?

A D
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you?
