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