I was soaring ever higher,       but I flew too high

Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man

Though my mind could thnk I still was a mad man

I hear the voices when I'm dreamin', I can hear them say

Carry on my wayward son, For there'll be peace when you are done

Am        C      G      F
Lay your weary head to rest Now don't you cry no more

Instrumental A

Vers2.:
Masquerading as a man with a reason   My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune, but I hear the voices say

Refrain  Carry on...
