[Intro]
Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

[Verse 1]
Am       G              F            G
  Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Am        G                F         G
  Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion
Dm      C            A#    C
  I was soaring ever higher
Dm      C        G
  but I flew too high

[Verse 2]
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                   A#      C
  I hear the voices when I'm dreamin'
Dm      C         G
  I can hear them say

[Chorus]
Am      C        G       F Am
  Carry on my wayward son
             C            G
For there'll be peace when you're done
Am         C         G       F
  Lay your weary head to rest
                 Am
Don't you cry no more

[Verse 3]
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             A#      C
  If I claim to be a wise man
Dm
  it surely
C                  G
Means that I don't know

[Verse 4]
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                   A#     C
  Set a course for winds of fortune
Dm
  but
  C               G
I hear the voices say

[Chorus]
Am      C        G       F Am
  Carry on my wayward son
             C            G
For there'll be peace when you're done
Am         C         G       F
  Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

[Verse 5]
Am         G        F        G
  Carry on you will always remember
Am         G       F          G
  Carry on nothing equals the splendor
Dm         C                A#   C
  Now your life's no longer empty
Dm       C                G
  Surely heaven waits for you

[Chorus]
Am      C        G       F Am
  Carry on my wayward son
             C            G
For there'll be peace when you're done
Am         C         G       F
  Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry
                 E
Don't you cry no more
