Carry Me

E B A C#m B When I was a young man, I found an old dream E B A C#m B It was as battered and worn a one, as you have ever seen E B A C#m B I invented some new wings, and I painted a nose E B A C#m A I wished so hard, up in the air, I ro-o-ose, singing E D A E Carry me, carry me, carry me, above the world D A E Carry me, carry me, carry me E B A C#m B And I once loved a girl, she was younger than me E B Her parents kept her locked, up in their lives A C#m B And she was crying, she was wishing she could be free E B Of course I mostly remember her laughing A C#m B Standing there and watching us play E B A C#m A For a while then, the music, would take her away and she'd be singing E D A E Carry me, carry me, carry me, above this world D A E Carry me, carry me, carry me, above the world E B A Then there was my mother, she was lying in white sheets there C#m B And she was waiting to die E B A She said if you just reach underneath this bed, and untie these weights C#m B I could surely fly E B She's still smiling but she's tired A C#m B She'd like to hear that last bell ring E B A C#m A You know if she still could she would, stand up, she would sing E D A E Carry me, carry me, carry me, above the world D A D A D A E Carry me, carry me, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, ooh -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Put your problems out with the cat -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Written by: Mick Anderson micka@jolt.mpx.com.au -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Must be lamb today cause beef was last week =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
