Carry On My Wayward Son by Kansas

Carry On My Wayward Son

By Kansas                                                                        

Flute notes

 E G     G   C    BG      GAGF
Carry on my wayward son 

 E          G    G      C       B     G   ED
There'll be peace when you are done 

 E     G      GC    B     G  GAGF
Lay your weary head to rest 

 E      D     E   D   C
Dont you cry no more 


 A     C  D    C  B    A  A       A     G A B
Once I rose above the noise and confusion

 A   C  D  C    B          A E     D   C C D
Just to get a glimpse behind this illusion 

F  F     E  D    D C  E  D
I was soaring ever higher 

 F   F  E    D C  G
But I flew too high 


    A       C     D    C       B  A  A   A   G  A     B
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man 

   A        C    D       C       B    A  E    D   C  C     D
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man 

F  F    E    D        D       C    E D
I hear the voices when im dreaming 

F  F    E     G     G
I can here them say


E G     G   C    BG      GAGF
Carry on my wayward son 

 E          G    G      C       B     G   ED
There'll be peace when you are done 

 E     G      GC    B     G  GAGF
Lay your weary head to rest 

 E      D     E   D   C
Dont you cry no more 


 A C D C         B A  A    A        G A B
Masquerading as a man with a reason   

 A    C  D    C   B   A E   D C    C D
My charade is the event of the season 

 D    F F  E     D  D C  E     D
And if I claim to be a wise man

C  F F       E        D  D  C     G
It surely means that I dont know


 A C   D C    B   A   A A      G A B
On a stormy sea of moving emotion

   A        C D  C   B   A  E    D  C    C D
Tossed about im like a ship on the ocean

D  F  F   E       D     D     C   E  D
I  set a course for winds of fortune

 F   F  E    E    E  G    G
But I hear the voices say


E G     G   C    BG      GAGF
Carry on my wayward son 

 E          G    G      C       B     G   ED
There'll be peace when you are done 

 E     G      GC    B     G  GAGF
Lay your weary head to rest 

 E      D     E   D   C
Dont you cry no more

 B
No!

 G A   A    G     A    A G    E G E
Carry On, you will always remember

 G A   A    A  A     C B     A   B A
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor

 A      A     G     F    F  E    G  F
Now your life's no longer empty

 G  G    A  A     A     C    B
Surely heaven waits for you


E G     G   C    BG      GAGF
Carry on my wayward son 

 E          G    G      C       B     G   ED
There'll be peace when you are done 

 E     G      GC    B     G  GAGF
Lay your weary head to rest 

 E      D     E   D   C
Dont you cry no more

   A     G     A   B   B
(Dont you cry no more!)
