This Is the tab for Carry On by Fun. It's fits to my ear and my ear is pretty
good. You'll need a capo on 1st fret to play with the CD track but if you're
singing it as well then you can leave that off if you want. :P

[INTRO]
E A E A E A E A
[VERSE 1]
E A
Well I woke up to the sound of silence and guns
E A
were cutting like knives in a fist fight
E
And I found you with a bottle of wine
A E A
your head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July
E
You swore and said we are not
F#
we are not shining stars
Ab
This i know
A2
cause i never said we are
E
Though I've never been through hell like that
A E A
I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
[CHORUS]
E A B
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
E A B
Carry on
E A B
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
E A B
Carry on
E A E A
Carry on carry on

[VERSE 2]
E A
So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
E A
at a bar off 75
E A
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
E A
All our neighbors and wives
[PRE CHORUS]
E
But i'd like to think
F#
I can cheat it all
Ab A2
to make up for the times i've been cheated on
E
And it's nice to know
F#
when i was left for dead
Ab
I was found and I know not these streets
A2 B2
I am not the ghost you want to be
[CHORUS]
E A B
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
E A B
Carry on
E A B
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
E A B
Carry on
B
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
[BRIDGE]
A E B
My head is on fire, but my legs they're fine
A E B
Cause after all, they are mine
A E B
Lay your clothes down on the floor, close the door, hold the phone
A B
show me how, no one's ever gonna stop us now
E F# Ab A2
E F# Ab A2
[PRE CHORUS]
E F#
Cause we are, we are shining stars
Ab A2
We are invincible, we are who we are
E F#
On our darkest day, when we're miles away
Ab A2 B2
Sun will come, we will find our way home
[CHORUS]
E A B
If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
E A B
Carry on
E A B
May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
E A B
Carry on
[OUTRO]
