Verse 1
D
G
10 to midnight
C
G
Am
Christmas Eve, trying to get back home
D
The red eyes finally boarding
C
G
and we fumble for our phones
Packages and duffel bags,
C
Am
the way it's been so long
D
Leave no baggage unattended,
C
G
pick it up and carry on
So many wrinkled travellers,
C
G
the stories they could tell
Am
D
Of lessons learned in pages turned,
C
G
but oh, they wear it well
Radicals and drummer boys,
C
G
hum a hopeful song
Am
D
And the light there in the darkness
C
G
bids them carry on
Em
Bm
Carry on through the night
C
D
Wise men seek a perfect light
Bm
Em
The road is long, but that's alright
C
D
G
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Hark the herald angels
C
G
Am
sing of all our wrongs made right
D
This one almost lost his family
C
G
but he's heading home tonight
A beast, an unwed mother,
C
G
Am
broken -hearted fools
D
Carry life to others
C
G
in a world that can be cruel
Em
Bm
They carry on through the night
C
D
Wise men seek a perfect life
Bm
Em
The road is long, but that's alright
C
D
G
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Am
Mother of mercy who
Bm
carried the child
Am
Through scandal and danger
Bm
and lonely exile
C
A
Pray for us now as we stumble along
Am
C
D
Send us the graces to carry on
G
So many silent soldiers,
C
Am
glorious and smart
D
They come to make the best of it
C
G
And it makes them who they are
C
Cradling faith, hope and love
G
Am
Though dreams have come and gone
D
They don't look down,
they don't look back
C
They just carry on
G
D
They don't look down,
they don't look back
Am
D
G
They just carry on you
