Strum
D-DU-UDU
 You can laugh  at the things  that I want
 You can say  that my dreams won't come true
 But you know  that I know  what I want
 The strength  that it takes to follow through
 This desire  that is burning  in me
 Is a fire  that is a out of control
 And you know  that I know  what I mean
 My heart  has been broken over and over
 Over and over so  many times
 I will make  my mistakes, take  my heart aches
Do  what it takes to get along
 I will lay  down my pride, tears  I can't hide
 I've made  up my mind to carry on
Carry  on, if you discover
carry  on, if dark clouds hover
carry  on, when there's no other place  to go
Carry  on, if you should stumble
carry  on, if dreams should crumble
carry  on, till you find your way  back home
 I will lay down where I could feel
 All the wind and the grass in my soul
 And I'll stare at the clouds over head
 Cause I've been disappointed over and over
 Over and over so many times
 Bridge + Chorus+:
 carry on, till you find you're not alone
Carry  on, carry on
