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# Cm
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Fm G Cm
Then I know again that I must carry on
[Chorus]
G# A# D# D#/D Cm
Carry on till tomorrow, there's no reason to look back
G# A# Cm Gm
Carry on, carry on, carry on
[Verse]
Cm Gm Cm Gm Cm
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# Cm
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Fm G Cm
Then I know again that I must carry on
[Chorus]
G# A# D# D#/D Cm
Carry on till tomorrow, there's no reason to look back
G# A# Cm Gm Cm Gm
Carry on, carry on, carry on
[Verse]
Cm Gm Cm Gm Cm
Drifting on the wings of freedom, leave this stormy day
G# A# D#
And we'll ride to tomorrow's golden fields
G# A# Cm
For my life's too short for waiting when I see the rising sun
Fm G Cm
Then I know again that I must carry on
G# A# Cm G#
Carry on, carry on, carry on

And when the heavy journey's done, I'll rest my weary head
