12.Carry On My Wayward Son

Lyrics:K.Livgren
Music:K.Livgren

(Am)Carry (C)on my (G)wayward (F)son
(Am)There'll be (C)peace when (G)you are gone
(Am)Lay your (C)weary (G)head to (F)rest
(Am)Don't you cry no (Am)more

(Am)Once I (G)rose above
the (Fmaj7)noise and con(G)fusion
(Am)Just to (G)get a glimpse
be(Fmaj7)yond this il(G)lusion
(Dm)I was soaring ever (Bb)higher
(Dm)But I flew too (G)high

Though my eyes could see
I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think
I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man
It surely means that I don't know

On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say

No!

Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you
