CARRY ON WAYWARD SON by KANSAS Lyrics, Chords, and that awesome riff! [Intro]

Carry on my wayward son

N.C.

There'll be peace when you are done

N.C.

Lay your weary head to rest

N.C.

Don't you cry no more

EmOnce I Drose above the Cnoise and Dconfusion EmJust to Dget a glimpse Cbeyond this Dillusion AmI was Gsoaring ever FhigherF G AmBut I Gflew too Dhigh EmThough my Deyes could see I Cstill was a Dblind man EmThough my Dmind could think I Cstill was a Dmad man AmI hear the Gvoices when I'm FdreaminFg G AmI can Ghear them Dsay
[Chorus]
EmCarry Gon my Dwayward Cson EmThere'll be Gpeace when Dyou are done EmLay your Gweary Dhead to Crest

N.C.

Don't you cry no more

EmMasqueDrading as a Cman with a Dreason EmMy chaDrade is the Cevent of the Dseason AmAnd if I Gclaim to be a Fwise manF G AmIt surely Gmeans that I don't Dknow EmOn a Dstormy sea of Cmoving eDmotion EmTossed aDbout, I'm like a Cship on the Docean AmI set a Gcourse for winds of FfortunFe G AmBut I Ghear the voices Dsay
[Chorus]
EmCarry Gon my Dwayward Cson EmThere'll be Gpeace when Dyou are done EmLay your Gweary Dhead to Crest

N.C.
