[Verse 1]
G
 Mama went to sleep one night and 
never woke up
Em
 Daddy cried a tear into her old 
coffee cup
    C
 Now all he wants to do is drink the
 hurt all away

 But if Mama was here I know what 
Mama would say


[Chorus]
      G         Em
 Carry on, Carry on
                            C      
 What don't kill us makes us 
 D     G
strong, Carry on


[Verse 2]

C
 It hurts to know the hurt that 
she's going through
  D
 I know that she'll do what she's 
gotta do


[Chorus]
      G         Em
 Carry on, Carry on

strong, Carry on


[Bridge]
  C                            D
 Nobody ever said that life was 
gonna be fair
       C                          
 You're never gonna get nowhere by 
D
runnin' scared
       C                           
 If you look down deep inside 
          A                 C
you'll find the faith to make you 
strong
   D        Em  C Em D C D G
 Oh oh carry on


[Verse 3]
G
 I try to walk the sunny side of the
 street
Em
 Don't let no shadows tangle up my 
feet
C
 There ain't no troubles that we 
can't rise above
       D
 With a hand full of faith and a 
heart full of love


[Chorus]
      G         Em
 Carry on, Carry on
