[Intro]
Em//G D Em//G D
[Verse]
GSometimes it B7seems unimagiEmnable
That you were Amever any other wayB7
With your wAmhite rose face and your orEmphan clothes,
EmbAmroidered jeans and silver B7chains
You're a Gwell known B7face in all the Emhang-out places
Where the Amlost souls congregB7ate
And you Amsit all night, but you Emtalk too fast
And I Amdon't know what you're trying to B7say.
[Chorus]
Oh EmCarol,D I Cthink it's time for running for Emcover, Duh Chunh
BeEmlieve me, Dyou're eCveryone's and nobody's Emlover, Duh Chunh
You've got a Amone-way ticket for B7all your yesterEmdays.
[Verse]
GI know your B7daddy said he'd Emtalk to you
But he Amnever really found the B7time
And your Amtv mother with her Emcocktail eyes
Could Amnever really reach your B7mind
So you Gfixed your B7star to a Empassing dream
And took a Amcocaine holidaB7y
Now the Amyears flow round you in a Emmuddy stream
And you Amneed another place to B7stay.
[Chorus]
Oh EmCarol, DI tChink it's time for running for coEmver, uhD huCnh
BeEmlieve me, Dyou're Ceveryone's and nobody's Emlover, Duh Chunh
You've got a Amone-way ticket for B7all your yesterEmdays.
[Verse]
GReach down, silverDy ship from the stars, EmI know you're Athere,
I kGnow you'll undeDrstand me, you can tEmake me anywAhere,
GI know you must beA there...

[Bridge]
GSometimes it sB7eems imEmpossible
That the Amgame could get that B7rough
But the Amstage is set, the Emexit's barred
And the Ammake-up won't come B7off
So you Gmake your B7bow to the Embalcony,
You Amlight another cigarB7ette
and the Amlights grow dim as the Emmusic starts
And it's Ameasy to forEmget.
[Chorus]
Oh EmCarol, DI Cthink it's time for running for Emcover, Duh Chunh
BelEmieve me, youD're Ceveryone's and nobody's Emlover, Duh Chunh
You've got a Amone-way ticket for B7all your yesterEmdays.
GReach down, Dsilvery ship from the sEmtars, I know you're Athere,
I kGnow yDou'll understand me, you can Emtake me anyAwhere,
I kGnow you must be thAere...
