Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Intro: F Am G C Verse: F If you walked in just to walk out Am Then I reckon you get going G But if you're built for staying C Then I pray that you stay knowing F I was never bound for perfect Am But I sure am bound to you G And sure as stars shine tonight C And that river's flowing through
Chorus: F So don't get carried away C Don't get carried away G Cause I know it's gettin late Am And you got plenty left to say F Don't get carried away C Don't get carried away G Got a long walk home Am and it's all up hill that way Verse: F I know i've got a good heart Am but my conscious kills me G I'll die in your arms C Or I will die lonely F There is no in between C You talk love and you talk faith G There's no fight at all Am Or a punch in the face Chorus: F I'll get carried away C I'll get carried away G Am Say things that only a bad man would say F I'll get carried away C I'll get carried away G Am And hope the next morning forgiveness gives way Bridge: F Am I swear that one day I'll see you in all white G C Your mother stands grinning cause she knows that you're alright F Am There's no place and no face that I have ever seen G N.C. That reminds me so much of something I've dreamed Chorus: F And I'll carry you away C Oh I'll carry you away G Am With you draped in my arms on a long August day F I will carry you away C I will carry you away G Am Bust down the doors and forever will stay Verse: F If you walked in just to walk out Am Then I reckon you get going G But if you're built for staying C Then I pray that you stay knowing F I was never bound for perfect Am But I sure am bound to you G And sure as stars shine tonight C And that river flows on through Chorus: F So don't get carried away C Don't get carried away G Cause I know it's gettin late Am And you got plenty left to say F Don't get carried away C Don't get carried away G We got a long walk home Am and it's all up hill that way
