 C                                         F     C 
The name she gave was Caroline,
         F                         C 
The daughter of a miner,
         F                         C                     G/B           Am7 
And her ways were free and it seemed to me,
 G                                     F 
The sunshine walked beside her,
 C                                         F                   C 
She come from Spencer across the hill,
         F                             C 
She said her Pa had sent her,
             F           C             G/B             Am7 
The coal was low and since the snow,
             G                                 F 
Would turn the skies to winter.
 C                                           F               C 
She said she'd come to look for work,
         F                             C 
She was not seeking favors,
             F           C                 G/B           Am7 
For a dime a day and a place to stay,
             G                                     F 
She'd turn those hands to labor.
 C                                                                 F                 C 
Well the times were hard Lord the jobs were few,
 F                                       C 
All through Tecumseh Valley,
                 F           C                     G/B         Am7 
But she asked around and a job she found,
                 G                         F 
Tending bar for Gypsy Sally.
 C                                     F               C 
She saved enough to get back home,
           F                                     C 
When spring replaced the winter,
                 F                     C                 G/B         Am7 
But her dreams were denied her Pa had died,
                   G                                     F 
When the word came down from Spencer.
 C                                                 F           C 
She turned to whorin' out on the streets,
         F                                       C 
With all the lust inside her,
               F           C         G/B           Am7 
It was many a man returned again,
       G                     F 
To lay himself beside her.
 C                                               F                     C 
Well they found her down beneath the stairs,
           F                       C 
That led to Gypsy Sally's,
               F                         C                     G/B             Am7 
In her hand when she died, was a note that cried,
                     G                         F 
Fare thee well Tecumseh Valley.
 C                                         F     C 
The name she gave was Caroline,
         F                         C 
The daughter of a miner,
                 F                 C                     G/B             Am7 
And her ways were free and it seemed to me,
         G                                           F     C 
The sunshine walked beside her.
