 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,
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
 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
