"Caroline, No"
(Brian Wilson / Tony Asher)
The right-hand harpsichord part is actually quite simple; the tracking
session on the box set (in C; the released version was sped up to Db)
shows it to be:
Em Esus Dsus
/ / / / / / / /
... where Em is voiced as B-E-G, Esus as B-E-A, Dsus as A-D-G. Tranpose
accordingly to play along with the sped-up version, and no, don't ask me
how to replicate these voicings on guitar - try Ab6 and Gb6 instead.
Verse 1:
Fm/Ab Fsus/Ab Ebsus/Db
Where did your long hair go
Fm/Ab Fsus/Ab Ebsus/Db
Where is the girl I used to know
Fm/Ab Fsus/Ab Abm7 Abm7/Db Gbmaj7/Db
How could you lose that happy glow
Ebsus/Gb
Oh Caroline, No
Verse 2:
Who took that look away
I remember how you used to say
You'd never change, but that's not true
Oh Caroline, you
Bridge:
Ebm7 Ab7 Dbmaj7
Break my heart, I want to go and cry
Cm7-5 Gbdim Bbm
It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die
Ebm7-5/A
Oh Caroline, why
Verse 3:
Could I ever find in you again
Things that made me love you so much then
Could we ever bring them back once they had gone *
Oh Caroline, no
[repeat verse chords to fade]
* verse 3 holds the Gbmaj7/Db one extra measure
