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

Don't you cry no more

       Em             Dm    Dm7 G         Am
Once I rose above the noise and confusion ■ 
        C             G           Dm      
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
      C            Bb     C F
I was soaring ever higher ■ ■
      C        G   
But I flew too high
Am           G                F           G     Am 
■  Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
          G                  F           G   Dm 
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
           C               Bb      
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
  Dm     C    G       
I ■  can hear them say


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

[Verse]
G                 F          G      Am
Masquerading as a man with a reason ■ 
   G              F            G      Dm
My charade is the event of the season ■ 
         C             Bb           
And if I claim to be a wise man well
Dm           C                  G    Am
■  It surely means that I don't know ■ 


[Chorus]
     G             F      G       Am
On a stormy sea of moving emotion ■ 
G                       F       G   Dm   
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
        C                Bb Dm     
I set a course for winds of fortune
C              G      Am 
But I hear the voices say
C           G       F   Am
Carry on my wayward son ■ 
            C          G           
There'll be peace when you are done
Am          C     G       F   
■  Lay your weary head to rest
                 G   
Don't you cry no more

No Carry on you will always remember
Am               F             Dm      
■  Carry on none can equal the splendor
         C         Bb     C    
Now your life's no longer empty
Dm C                   G   Am 
■  Surely heaven waits for you
C           G       F   Am
Carry on my wayward son ■

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest
          F  
Don't you cry
   F   
No more
