Bm F#m Bm F#m Bm
In younger days, I told myself my life would be my own
G A D
And I'd leave the place where sunshine never shone
G A Bm
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Em F# Bm
Then I know again that I must carry on
[Chorus]
G A D D/C# Bm
Carry on till tomorrow, there's no reason to look back
G A Bm F#m
Carry on, carry on, carry on
[Verse]
Bm F#m Bm F#m Bm
Beyond the shadows of the clouds and onward to the sky
G A D
Carry on till I find the rainbow's end
G A Bm
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Em F# Bm
Then I know again that I must carry on
[Chorus]
G A D D/C# Bm
Carry on till tomorrow, there's no reason to look back

Carry on, carry on, carry on
[Verse]
Bm F#m Bm F#m Bm
Drifting on the wings of freedom, leave this stormy day
G A D
And we'll ride to tomorrow's golden fields
G A Bm
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun

Carry on, carry on, carry on
