O.A.R. – Caroline The Wrecking Ball (Guitar)

This is my first tab but I love OAR and this song so I spent the time to study it for my fellow humans. VERSE (CHORDS SAME IN EVERY VERSE JUST LISTEN FOR STRUMMING PATTERN.)

C                         FM7         C
There something about the way we fall apart

C                     FM7      C                      G  
Like everything that matters, didn’t matter from the start

C              FM7           C    
Everyone around us played a part

                   C                    FM7             
Wrecking ball came crashing through the window

C                   G            FM7
Structures that we carry in our heart

C              G            
And all I ever asked of you

C                 FM7             C         
Is just to be the woman that you wanted to

C             G
It’s all I ever asked

C                FM7        C
Just outside the city on a Sunday last July

C                   FM7            C           G
The girl’s name was Brandy but we called her Caroline

C           FM7       C
No one even knew her history

                    C               FM7 
Said she came from somewhere in the southland

C                  G                   FM7
Feels like she was coming straight for me

I was playing nine ball with two guys I knew from work This junkie local starts acting like a jerk Saw him put his hand up Brandy’s skirt And I don’t know what happened next In retrospect I lost my head and think I went berserk By the time they pulled me off him I was almost coming to Bleeding at the knuckles, she says nice to meet you And the cops will probably be here in a flash We hailed a cab we both got in And watched that taxi driver slam his foot down on the gas CHORUS (SAME CHORDS WITH EVERY CHORUS)

          C         FM7      C                G
Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you

F5/C (E0 A3 D3 G0 B1 e0 is how to play this weird chord) Oh oh oh

         C          FM7      C                G 
Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you

F5/C
But I ain’t nobody’s fool

Next few months we spent a lot of time up in the room Laughed a lot, drank a lot, yeah we tried to shoot the moon And in the morning time she'd always disappear I agreed, I'd never ask her questions With the chance of an answer I don't wanna hear One morning, she crying on the stoop outside my place She tryin’ to hide it, there’s sadness on her face Oh is there anything I can do? She said perhaps if you would drop this package off I would hate to inconvenience you Well they say a suckers born, every sixty seconds time I knew I shouldn't do it, but I put it from my mind And, oh if you knew that gal of mine You’d understand, I got no hand in making that decision Reason got no rhyme Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you Oh oh oh Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you But I ain't nobody's fool Nobody's fool no more I knocked at the address that she gave waited for a few Looked inside the window and I saw a kid or two Next thing I knew a burner in my face There's just some shit you never can erase Both my hands were shaking as the sun began to rise I got back to my house, she was gone I'm not surprised You can never ground a bird that needs to fly Oh I got into that urge to move Thanks to you, my wrecking ball Caroline Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you Oh oh oh Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you Oh oh oh Must be a fool like me to be with you Oh oh oh Must be a fool like me to be with you But I ain't nobody's fool Nobody's fool no more No more Add any suggestions and I hope you enjoy! <3
