N.C.
Carry on my wayward son
N.C.
There'll be peace when you are done
N.C.
Lay your weary head to rest
N.C.
Don't you cry no more

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 a course for winds of fortune
Am G D
But I hear the voices say
[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Em N.C.
Carry on
D C
You will always remember
Em N.C.
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
[Chorus]
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
