We Carry On

       C                                                                                 C9 
He hasn't seen a drop of rain for months it seems
 F                                                                                 F9 
Rollin' river is nothing but a trickling stream
           C                                                             C9 
The crops are dying in the harsh sunlight
 F                                                   F9 
The dust on his tongue is dry
         Am                                                             F 
The fatted calf is down to skin and bones
                   C   C9   C 
We carry on
     C                                                                       C9 
Alone in the city and she's only seventeen
                   F                                                                       F9 
The boy left her black and blue in the street so mean
             C                                                                                 C9 
Just twelve weeks along and she's got a life inside
 F                                                             F9 
Says she's never ever felt so alone
 Am                                                                     F 
She walks in the shelter, they say "welcome home"
                           C 
And we carry on
 Dm               C/E       F 
When our lives come undone
                   C 
We carry on
   Dm                             C/E                 F 
Cause there's promise in the morning sun
                   Am 
We carry on
                                               F                     C/E 
As the dark surrenders to the dawn
                 Bb                         F 
We were born to overcome
                   C 
We carry on
                       F 
Beyond the picket fences and the oil wells
         C 
The happy endings and the fairy tales
 G                                                                           Dm 
Is the reality of shattered lives and broken dreams
                   C   C9   C               F   F9   F(x2)    Bb  F 
We carry on             Carry on
                     C                                                             C9 
It's the family that grieves for a lost loved one
                     F                                                                         F9 
It's the soldier who won't leave til the job is done
                     C                                                             C9 
It's the addict trying to turn his life around
             F 
It's picking yourself off the ground when you've been knocked down
CHORUS (x2)

           C                                                                                   C9 
He stands in the field, cooled by the winds of change
             F                                                                         F9 
She smiles as her baby moves and it starts to rain
