    Carry On My Wayward Son

    Uploaded by

    Lucas Pires
    This song tells the story of a wayward son who is struggling through difficult times but finds solace in carrying on. The son had soared high but flew too high and though he could think, he was still a mad man. He hears voices when dreaming that tell him to carry on, that there will be peace when he is done and not to cry anymore. The son is masquerading as a man and is tossed about on a stormy sea of emotion, but sets a course for winds of fortune despite the voices he hears saying to carry on.

    Carry On My Wayward Son

    [Primeira Parte]

    Am G F
    Once, I rose above the noise
    G Am
    And confusion
    G F
    Just to get a glimpse beyond
    G Dm
    This illusion
    C Bb C Dm
    I was soaring ever higher
    C G
    But I flew too high

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

    [Primeiro Refrão]

    Am C G F Am
    Carry on, my wayward son
    C G Am
    There'll be peace when you are done
    C G F
    Lay your weary head to rest

    Don't you cry no more

    (Interlúdio)

    [Segunda Pa rte]

    Am G F
    Masquerading as a man
    G Am
    With a reason
    G
    My charade is the
    F G Dm
    Event of the season
    C Bb C Dm
    And if I claim to be a wise man, well
    C
    It surely means
    G
    That I don't know
    Am G F G Am
    On a stormy sea of moving emotion
    G
    Tossed about like
    F G Dm
    A ship on the ocean
    C
    I set a course
    Bb C Dm
    For winds of fortune
    C G
    But I hear the voices say

    [Segundo Refrão]
    Am C G F Am
    Carry on, my wayward son
    C G Am
    There'll be peace when you are done
    C G F
    Lay your weary head to rest

    Don't you cry no more
