A
She stands there looking down
Now she don't come around
 D                   A
High on the wire, a beautiful liar
  A
Tesco Disco made me run
For those warm cans in the sun
         D                        A
Now you just order the wine and break out a line
  A
Where did you go, sweet Caroline?
The girl I used to know

Chorus:
C              G
Oh, don't you see now
Am                       F  G
What you're supposed to do?
C                 G                Am                    F G
Yeah, you got it bad sister, the ghosts got the best of you
C                   G        Am                    Em
And, oh, don't you notice no one's looking out for you?
F                C               G
Yeah you got it bad sister, you do
                     A
I'm looking out for you

All the boys you brought back home
They'd go out and we get stoned
Just you and I
Laugh ‘til we cry
I miss playing computer games
You'd get pissed and call me names
All them coffee stains
Ingrained in my brain
Where did you go, sweet Caroline?
The girl I used to know

Chorus:
Oh don't you see now
What you're supposed to do?
Yeah, you got it bad sister
The ghosts got the best of you
And, oh, don't you notice no one's looking out for you
Yeah you got it bad sister, you do
I'm looking out for you

Em              D                   A
I can't follow, I can't follow you down
Em                          D
It's your choice it's your life it's the bed
          A
that you lay in tonight
Am                G
I don't know him, I never did
       D
He's drowning your voice, he's keeping you here
        Am
I'm no good at goodbyes
G                 D
I never was it's time to be leaving because

Chorus:
You don't see now what you're supposed to do
Yeah, you got it bad sister
The ghosts got the best of you
And oh don't you notice no one looking out for you
Yeah, you got it bad sister you do
I‘m looking out for you
Oh, you got it bad sister, you do
There's nothing I can do
