 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    F  G
I was soaring ever higher,

 Am    G     D
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     F  G
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming,

 Am    G      D
I can hear them say

 Em    G    D     C
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

 N.C.
Don't you cry no more


 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     F  G
And if I claim to be a wise man,

 Am      G          D
It surely means 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    F  G
I set sail for winds of fortune,

 Am    G         D
But I hear the voices say

 Em    G    D     C
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

(N.C.)Don't you cry no moreEm (mute)Carry on
     D    C
You will always remember

 Em
(mute) Carry on


     D      C
Nothing equals the splendor

 Am     G         F
Now your life's no longer empty

 Am    G         D
Surely Heaven waits for you

 Em    G    D     C
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

N.C., Bm7
