Willy Mason - Carry on

^CBeside my bed there is a lamp And in that lamp there is a lonely m^Foth ^CHe’s got one night, he’s got one life And one thing on his mind, and that’s the fi^Fre ^AmHe doesn’t care from where it comes ^GHe only knows he’s got to run ^FToward the brightest promise in his eye ^AmNow he’s circling to the ground ^GHis wings have burned, he’s falling down ^FI just watch, and wonder how we c^Carry o^Fn

^CIt was a world I never made I just fell into this old par^Fade ^CThey told me it’s my time to shine And they got ways to light me up at n^Fight ^AmThey didn’t care from where I came ^GIt seemed they lost their pride and shame ^FLooking for a fire of their own ^AmOne last ember hits the ground ^GThe wood’s all burned, it's ashes now ^FIf you look up to the moon, you’ll help me ca^Crry o^Fn

^COld man in a bar tonight He sits down on a stool to watch the fi^Fght ^CHe says “One last drink to light me up And then I do believe I’ve had en^Fough” ^AmChasing dreams that end in pain ^GI’ve chased the sun, I’ve chased the rain ^FBut nothing ever seemed to fill my cup ^AmI see the angels circling now ^GI feel the moon behind the clouds ^FThat’s the kind of fire I’d be proud to ca^Crry o^Fn
