[Verse 1]
G             
Where it began, 
C
 I can't begin to knowin'
G                 
 But then I know 
              D
 it's growin' strong
G                  C
 Was in the spring, and 

 spring became a summer
G                      
 Who'd have believed 
             D     D7
 you'd come along?
 

[Pre-Chorus]
G     Em
Hands,   touching hands
D             C             
 Reaching out,  touching me, 
          D  D C D
 touching you
 

[Chorus]
G         C   C G C          
Sweet Caroline,    good times 
                D   D C D
never seemed so good
G        C     C G C          
I'd be inclined,    to believe 
           D
they never would
C   Bm Am
But now I
 

[Verse 2]
G                 C
Look at the night, and 

it don't seem so lonely
G                        D
 We fill it up with only two
G                C
 And when I hurt, hurting 

 runs off my shoulder
G                            D   D7
 How can I hurt when holding you?
 

[Pre-Chorus]
G    Em
Warm,   touching warm
D             C            
 Reaching out,  touching me, 
          D  D C D
 touching you
 
[Chorus]
G         C   C G C           
Sweet Caroline,    good times 
                D  D C D
never seemed so good
G        C     C G C         
I'd be inclined,    to believe 
           D
they never would
C   Bm Am
Oh  no  no

never seemed so good
G         C   C G C        
Sweet Caroline,    I believe 
           D
they never could . . .
