Played on bass. At the five you enter singing. [Verse 1]
G
I was out cruisin', gettin' late and I was losin'

                        D
When I saw you walkin' my way
So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want
                                G
But so do I and I ain't losin' today

G
Well your hips were swingin' and your jeans were clingin'

                                D
You were driving me out of my mind
On a hot afternoon when there's nothin' to do
                                                G
You're not the sort of thing a fellow should find

G
So I pulled on over, tossed your hair off your shoulder

                                D
As you turned and you looked my way
Oh you would have died or you'd have skinned me alive
                                  G
If I'd have said what I wanted to say

G
So bein' polite said what you doin' tonight

                                D
You said it just so happens I'm free
You got all the right curves and all the right words
                     G          G7
And that's alright by me
[Chorus]
C                                   G
Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,

G                                 D
You got me countin' my nights and days

                                G         G7
Oh I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay,

C                               G
Oh Carol, nobody's done it before

                          D
Oh baby you've opened the door,

D                           G
Oh Carol you can do it some more
[Verse 2]
G
Well if you're ready for this when we started to kiss

                             D
She said hold on a minute or two
Well naturally I knew it couldn't be me
                             G
I said baby what's troublin' you

G
She said I'm not sixteen if you know what I mean

                                D
So we sat and we talked for a while
But when we finally kissed you know she didn't resist
                             G
And I must say she did it with style
[Chorus]
C                                   G
Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,

G                                 D
You got me countin' my nights and days

                                G         G7
Oh I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay,

C                               G
Oh Carol, nobody's done it before

                          D
Oh baby you've opened the door,

D                           G
Oh Carol you can do it some more
[Solo Сhords] Maybe a G7 if you want, then, the same as the verse:
G D  G D  G D
Then you go into the verse and play a more staccato sound (this verse only):
[Verse 3]
G
Well I was out cruisin', gettin' late and I was losin'

                          D
When I saw you walking my way
So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want
                                G
But so do I and I ain't losin' today
[Chorus]
C                                   G
Oh Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,

G                                 D
You got me countin' my nights and days

                                G         G7
Oh I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay,

C                               G
Oh Carol, nobody's done it before

                          D
Oh baby you've opened the door,

D                           G
Oh Carol you can do it some more
