Carry Me Chords

Carry Me - Chris de Burgh
 
[Verse 1]
            C       F                G
There is an answer, some day we will know,
             C        F             G
And you will ask her, why she had to go,
   Em       Am       Em          Am
We live and die, we laugh and we cry,
F                 C
And you must take away the pain,
  F              G           C
Before you can begin to live again;
 
[Chorus]
          C         G              C
So let it start, my friend, let it start,
        F          C                 G
Let the tears come rolling from your heart,
             Am     F            C      F
And when you need a light in the lonely nights,
      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,
      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
 
[Verse 2]
           C     F              G
There is a river rolling to the sea,
            C            F         G
You will be with her for all eternity,
    Em        Am         Em        Am
But we that remain need you here again,
   F                 C
So hold  her in your memory
    F                 G           C
And begin to make the shadows disappear;
 
[Chorus]
           C         G              C
Yes let it start, my friend, let it start,
        F          C                 G
Let the love come rolling from your heart,
             Am     F            C      F
And when you need a light in the lonely nights,
      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,
      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
 
[Outro]
          C         G              C
So let it start, my friend, let it start,
        F          C                 G
Let the love come rolling from your heart,
             Am     F            C      F
And when you need a light in the lonely nights,
      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,
      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
 
[Coda]
      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,
      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
