Intro: C C9 C F F9 F

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"

Chorus:

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 C F F9 F

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
