Carry On
by Kansas
(Tunelist)

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

Am      G                     F                 G
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Am      G                      F             G
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
Dm     C                Bb    Bb C
I was soaring ever higher
Dm    C          G
But I flew too high
Am             G                       F            G
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Am            G                          F             G
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
Dm          C                       Bb
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
Dm   C             G
I can hear them say

{Chorus:
Am     C        G

Carry on my wayward son
Am            C                G
There'll be peace when you are done
Am          C       G
Lay your weary head to rest
Am
Don't you cry no more}
Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man
It surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set sail for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say

[CHORUS]

Am (mute)
Carry on
              C           G
You will always remember
Am (mute)
Carry on
              C            G
Nothing equals the splendor
Dm           C                    Bb     Bb C
Now your life's no longer empty
Dm     C                        G
Surely Heaven waits for you

[CHORUS]
