Carry On

C
Beside my bed there is a lamp
And in that lamp there is a lonely 
 F
moth
C
He’s got one night, he’s got one 
life
And one thing on his mind, and 
             F
that’s the fire
Am
He doesn’t care from where it comes
G
He only knows he’s got to run
F
Toward the brightest promise in his 
eye
Am
Now he’s circling to the ground
G
His wings have burned, he’s falling 
down
F                             
I just watch, and wonder how we 
   C     F
carry on

[Verse 2]
C
It was a world I never made
                             F
I just fell into this old parade
C
They told me it’s my time to shine
And they got ways to light me up at 
 F
night
Am
They didn’t care from where I came
G
It seemed they lost their pride and 
shame
F
Looking for a fire of their own
Am
One last ember hits the ground
G
The wood’s all burned, it's ashes 
now
F                                 
If you look up to the moon, you’ll
           C    F
 help me carry on


[Verse 3]
C
Old man in a bar tonight
He sits down on a stool to watch the
   F
 fight
C
He says “One last drink to light me 
up
And then I do believe I’ve had 
  F
enough”
Am
Chasing dreams that end in pain
G
I’ve chased the sun, I’ve chased the
 rain
F
But nothing ever seemed to fill my 
cup
Am
I see the angels circling now
G
I feel the moon behind the clouds
F                                 
That’s the kind of fire I’d be 
        C    F
proud to carry on
