[Intro]
F Bb F Bb F Bb F Bb
[Verse]
F Bb
Well I woke up to the sound of silence and guns
F Bb
were cutting like knives in a fist fight
F
And I found you with a bottle of wine
Bb F Bb
your head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July
F
You swore and said we are not
Gm
we are not shining stars
F
This i know
Bb
cause i never said we are
F
Though I've never been through hell like that
Bb F Bb
I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
[Chorus]
F Bb C
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
F Bb C
Carry on
F Bb C
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
F Bb C
Carry on
F Bb F Bb
Carry on carry on
[Verse]
F Bb
So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
F Bb
at a bar off 75
F Bb
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
F Bb
All our neighbors and wives
[Pre-Chorus]
F
But i'd like to think
Gm
I can cheat it all
F Bb
to make up for the times i've been cheated on
F
And it's nice to know
Gm
when i was left for dead
F
I was found and I know not these streets
Bb C
I am not the ghost you want to be
[Chorus]
F Bb C
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
F Bb C
Carry on
F Bb C
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
F Bb C
Carry on
C
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
[Bridge]
Bb F C
My head is on fire, but my legs they're fine
Bb F C
Cause after all, they are mine
Bb F C
Lay your clothes down on the floor, close the door, hold the phone
Bb C
show me how, no one's ever gonna stop us tonight
F Gm F Bb
F Gm F Bb
[Pre-Chorus]
F Gm
Cause we are, we are shining stars
F Bb
We are invincible, we are who we are
F Gm
On our darkest day, when we're miles away
F Bb C
Sun will come, we will find our way home
[Chorus]
F Bb C
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
F Bb C
Carry on
F Bb C
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
F Bb C
Carry on
[Outro]
F Bb
Carry on carry on
F Bb
Carry on carry on
