E
Well I woke up to the sound of silence
A E A
The cars were cutting like knives in a fist fight
E
And I found you with a bottle of wine
A
Your head in the curtains
E A
And heart like the fourth of July
You swore and said
E
We are not
F#
We are not shining stars
G#
This I know
A2
I never said we are
E
Though I've never been through hell like that
A
I've closed enough windows
E A
To know you can never look back
E
If you're lost and alone
A B
or you're sinking like a stone
E A B
Carry on
E
May your past be the sound
A B
Of your feet upon the ground
E A B
Carry on
E A E A
Carry on, carry on
E
So I met up with some friends
A
At the edge of the night
E A
At a bar off 75
E
And we talked and talked
A
About how our parents will die
E A
All our neighbours and wives

E
But I like to think
F#
I can cheat it all
G# 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
G#
I was found and now I don't roam these streets
A2 B2
I am not the ghost you want of me
E
If you're lost and alone
A B
Or you're sinking like a stone
E A B
Carry on
E
May your past be the sound
A B
Of your feet upon the ground
E A B
Carry on
B
Woah
A E
My head is on fire
B
But my legs are fine
A E
Cause after all they are mine
A E
Lay your clothes down on the floor
B
Close the door
hold the phone
A
Show me how
B
No one's ever gonna stop us now
E F# G# A2
E F# G# A2
E
Cause we are
F#
We are shining stars
G#
We are invincible
A2
We are who we are
E
On our darkest day
F#
When we're miles away
G#
So we'll come
A2 B2
We will find our way home
E
If you're lost and alone
A B
Or you're sinking like a stone
E A B
Carry on
E
May your past be the sound
A B
Of your feet upon the ground
E A B
Carry on
E A
Carry on, carry on
