[Verse]
Bm G D
We're televisions whose mouths and words
Bm G D
Don't line up like they should
Bm G D
You're hard concrete, while I'm stuck on
Bm G D
The blood staining it and where it came from
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm G D
Coffee cups collect at the side of my bed
A Bm
Red pins pushed through the places I've been
G D
I tie them together with a string
A Bm G D
The pattern just tells me, "Go to sleep"
A
I should go to sleep
[Chorus]
A Bm G A
I'm getting used to my skin but it doesn't fit right
Bm G A
I share my name with a stranger all my life
Bm G Em G
And I feel it all, Carolina in my blood
Run, brother, run
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Bm G D
I was twenty-five when my dad died
Bm G D
My arm's fell weak, my heart grew tired
Bm G D
And every girl I tried to kiss
Bm G D
Gives that look you did so I just chose to miss
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm G D
Find the greatest books flip to the end
A Bm
In those last lines you'll find my friends
G D
Like flies on tape, I keep them close
A
We may look dead but move our toes
[Chorus]
A Bm G A
I'm getting used to my skin but it doesn't fit right
Bm G A
I share my name with a stranger all my life
Bm G Em G
And I feel it all, Carolina in my blood
D A Bm
Run, father, run
[Verse]
Em A
I keep your things in my garage
Bm A D
I won't drive away
Em G Em G
I feel it all, Carolina in my blood
Run, brother, run
