[Intro]
A G
[Verse 1]
A
Mama told me not to get involved
G
But I never did what I was told
A
Always drawn into the golden light
G
And it would happen every single night
F E A
Carry on, carry on, carry on
A
We were living by the malbro rule
G
Never talking to the jakes or turning up at school
A
And I'd pretend that I was fine enough
G
That I was never giving up
F E A
Carry on, carry on, carry on
[Chorus]
D
And I saw my devil closing in
D
Never thought I'd do such a bad thing
A E
You saved me though, little by little love
D
And I try so hard to bury that stuff
Never thought I'd get so fucked up
A E D
You saved me though, little by little love, little by little love
[Verse 2]
A
Misbehaviour, clocking up reports
G
Where's your manners, where's the things you're taught
A
I say "What's your business with the things I do?"
G
You say "Boy, if you only had a clue"
F E A
Carry on, carry on, carry on
A
All them years of never thinking straight
G
In my own way I was a lightweight
A
All my demons came whispering
G F E A
Telling me carry on, carry on, carry on
[Chorus]
D
And I saw my devil closing in
D
Never thought I'd do such a bad thing
A E
You saved me though, little by little love
D
And I try so hard to bury that stuff
Never thought I'd get so fucked up
A E D A
You saved me though, little by little love, little by little love
E D A
Little by little love, little by little love
E
Little by little love
D
And I saw my devil closing in
Never thought I'd do such a bad thing
A E
You saved me though, little by little love
D
And I try so hard to bury that stuff
Never thought I'd get so fucked up
A E D A
You saved me though, little by little love, little by little love
E D A
Little by little love, little by little love
E D A
Little by little love, little by little love
E D A
Little by little love, little by little love
E D A
Little by little love, little by little love
E
Little by little love
