Em D C D
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Em D C D
just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
Am G F G Am G D
I was soaring ever higher , but I flew too high.
Em D C D
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Em D C D
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
Am G F G Am G D
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming I can hear them say
Em G D C {Chorus}
Carry on my wayward son
Em G D
There'll be peace when you are done
Em G D C
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more Em D C D....2 TIMES
Em D C D
Masquerading as a man with a reason
Em D C D
my charade is the event of the season
Am G F G Am G
And if I claim to be a wise man It surely means
D
that I don't know.
Em D C D
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Em D C D
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
Am G F G Am D
I set sail for winds of fortune but I hear the voice's say
{Chorus}
{RIFF}A-757 D5 A757 D7 G474 D757 A5 D7 A5
Em {mute} D C
Carry on You will allways remember
Em {mute} D C
carry on nothing equals the splendor
Am G F Am G D
Now your life's no longer empty surely heaven waits for you.
Em G D C Em G D
Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done
Em G D C
Lay your weary head to rest AND don't you cry don't you cry
Bm7
no more....
