E B A Cm B
When I was a young man, I found an old dream
E B A Cm B
It was as battered and worn a one, as you have ever seen
E B A Cm B
I invented some new wings, and I painted a nose
E B A Cm A
I wished so hard, up in the air, I ro-o-ose, singing
E D A E
Carry me, carry me, carry me, above the world
D A E
Carry me, carry me, carry me
E B A Cm B
And I once loved a girl, she was younger than me
E B
Her parents kept her locked, up in their lives
A Cm B
And she was crying, she was wishing she could be free
E B
Of course I mostly remember her laughing
A Cm B
Standing there and watching us play
E B A Cm A
For a while then, the music, would take her away and she`d be singing
E D A E
Carry me, carry me, carry me, above this world
D A E
Carry me, carry me, carry me, above the world
E B A
Then there was my mother, she was lying in white sheets there
Cm B
And she was waiting to die
E B A
She said if you just reach underneath this bed, and untie these weights
Cm B
I could surely fly
E B
She`s still smiling but she`s tired
A Cm B
She`d like to hear that last bell ring
E B A Cm A
You know if she still could she would, stand up, she would sing
E D A E
Carry me, carry me, carry me, above the world
D A D A D A E
Carry me, carry me, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh, ooh
