E minorEm 
D MajorD 
C majorC D MajorD
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
A minorAm 
G+G 
FF FF G+G
I was soaring ever higher,
A minorAm G+G D MajorD
But I flew too high
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
A minorAm G+G FF FF G+G
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming,
A minorAm G+G D MajorD
I can hear them say
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
Carry on my wayward son
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
There'll be peace when you are done
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
Lay your weary head to rest
N.C.
Don't you cry no more
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
Masquerading as a man with a reason
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
My charade is the event of the season
A minorAm G+G FF FF G+G
And if I claim to be a wise man,
A minorAm G+G D MajorD
It surely means that I don't know
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
A minorAm G+G FF FF G+G
I set sail for winds of fortune,
A minorAm G+G D MajorD
But I hear the voices say
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
Carry on my wayward son
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
There'll be peace when you are done
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
Lay your weary head to rest
(N.C.)Don't you cry no moreEm (mute)Carry on
D MajorD C majorC
You will always remember
E minorEm
(mute) Carry on
D MajorD C majorC
Nothing equals the splendor
A minorAm G+G FF
Now your life's no longer empty
A minorAm G+G D MajorD
Surely Heaven waits for you
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
Carry on my wayward son
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
There'll be peace when you are done
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
Lay your weary head to rest
N.C.,
