[A] [E] [B] [E] I'm looking out for a girl called Caroline.

[E]
Standing there like she couldn't [F#] care.
Hoping her heart will never miss the beat.
[E] She's got a look and you know that it's always there.
I wouldn't have it any other [D] way.

Daddy's got to take her anywhere.
[F#] There is no reason but I gotta say.
