[Intro]
Carry on, my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
[Primeira Parte]
Am G F
Once, I rose above the noise
G Am
And confusion
G F
Just to get a glimpse beyond
G Dm
This illusion
C Bb C Dm
I was soaring ever higher
C G
But I flew too high
Am G
Though my eyes could see
F G Am
I still was a blind man
G
Though my mind could think
F G Dm
I still was a mad man
C Bb C Dm
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
C G
I can hear them say
[Primeiro Refrão]
Am C G F Am
Carry on, my wayward son
C G Am
There'll be peace when you are done
C G F
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
(Interlúdio)
[Segunda Parte]
Am G F
Masquerading as a man
G Am
With a reason
G
My charade is the
F G Dm
Event of the season
C Bb C Dm
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
C
It surely means
G
That I don't know
Am G F G Am
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
G
Tossed about like
F G Dm
A ship on the ocean
C
I set a course
Bb C Dm
For winds of fortune
C G
But I hear the voices say
[Segundo Refrão]
Am C G F Am
Carry on, my wayward son
C G Am
There'll be peace when you are done
C G F
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
[Ponte]

G5 F5 A5
You will always remember
(Carry on)
G5 F5 D5
Nothing equals the splendor
C5 Bb5 D5
Now your life's no longer empty
C5 G5
Surely Heaven waits for you
Am C G F Am
Carry on, my wayward son
C G Am
There'll be peace when you are done
C G F
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry, don't cry no more
