SOUTH CAROLINA Written by John Linnell Transcribed by Charlie Coniglio

|: G C Dm F :|

G               C              Dm     F
Th'other day my neighbor has a dented bike

G             C                Dm      F
Second day he called me from intensive care

G               C              Dm     F
Says he needs a picture of the dented bike

G          C               Dm       F
For the evidence of what a wreck he had

Em       G        A   D        Em   G    A   D
   And I won some damages, and they were punitive

Em    G       A        D     Em   G   A   D
   By which I mean the punishment was damaging

Em    G          A    D  Em   G          A    D
   It crushed my hand,     it crushed my head

Em G    A       D  Em    G   A   D
Garcon, where's my drink?
