  			D	      A          G            E    RIFF A 2X 
One morning I woke up and I knew you were really gone 
D          A           G         E    RIFF A 2X 
A new day, a new way, and new eyes to see the dawn 
Bsus     D         A    A7sus          E   RIFF A 2X 
Go your way, I'll go mine    and carry on 

The sky is clearing and the night has cried enough 
The sun he comes the world to soften up 
Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but to carry on 
	 
The fortunes of fables are able to see the stars 
Now witness the quickness with which we get along 
To sing the blues, you've got to live the dues, and carry on 

RIFF a 2 EXTRA TIMES

E                 Bm            D                G  A   B  D  E 
Will you bring me happiness?  Will you bring me sorrow? 
E                  D      Bm       A    E       D      Bm       A 
All the questions of a thousand dreams what you do and what you see 
E      D       A   G    E   RIFF B 4 TIMES 
Lover, can you talk to me? 
	 
Girl, when I was on my own chasing you down 
What was it made you run, tryin' your best just to get around 
The questions of a thousand dreams what you do and what you see 
Lover, can you talk to me?
