[G]When I was a [D]young boy

My [Em]father took [G]me into the [C]city

to [G]see a marching [Am]band[D]

 

He said [G]son when you [D]grow up

Wou[Em]ld you be The [G]savior of the [C]broken

The [G]beaten and the [Am]damned?"[D]

 

He said [G]will you

De[D]feat them

[Em]Your demons

And [G]all the non-be[C]lievers

The [G]plans that they have [Am]made?[D]

 

Because [G]one day

I'[D]ll leave you A [Em]PHANTOM

To [G]lead you in the [C]summer

To [G]join the black [Am]parade

[D]　[G]　[D]　[Em]　[G]　[C]　[G]　[Am]　[D]

 

When I [G]was-a you[D]ng boy

My [Em]father

[G]Took me into the [C]city

To [G]see a marching [Am]band[D]

He said [G]son when you [D]grow up

Would [Em]you be

The [G]savior of the [C]broken

The [G]beaten and the [Am]damned?

[D]　[G]　[D]　[Em]　[D]　[C]　[D]

 

Someti[G]mes I get the [D]feeling

She's [Dm]watching over [C]me

And other times I [G]feel like I should [D]go

 

And [G]through it all

The [D]rise and fall

The [Dm]bodies in the [C]streets

And when you're gone we [G]want you all to [D]know

 

We'll carry [G]on

[D]We'll carry [Em]on

[D]And though you're [C]dead and gone believe me

Your [D]memory will carry [G]on

[D]We'll carry [Em]on

 

[D]And in my [C]heart I can't contain it

The [D]anthem won't explain it

 

A [G]world that sends you [D]reeling

From [Dm]decimated [C]dreams

Your misery and [G]hate will kill us [D]all

 

So [G]paint it black

And [D]take it back

Let's [Dm]shout it loud and [C]clear

Defiant to the [G]end we hear the [D]call

 

To carry [G]on

[D]We'll carry [Em]on

[D]And though you're [C]dead and gone believe me

Your [D]memory will carry [G]on

[D]We'll carry [Em]on

[D]And though you're [C]broken and defeated

Your [D]weary widow march[C]es

[B]On and on we carry through the [Em]fears oh...

[B]Disappointed faces of your [Em]peers oh...

[C]Take a look at me

'Cause I [D#]could [D]not [C]care [Gm]at

[G]All

 

[G]Do or die

[D]You'll never make me

[Em]Because the world

[D]Will never take my [C]heart

[C]Go and try

[G]You'll never break me

[C]We want it all

[D]We want to play this [G]part

 

[G]I won't explain

[D]Or say I'm sorry

[Em]I'm unashamed

[D]I'm gonna show my [C]scar

[C]Give a cheer

[G]For all the broken

[C]Listen here

[D]Because it's who we are

 

[A]I'm just a man

[E]I'm not a hero

[F#m]Just a boy [E]Who had to sing this [D]song

[D]I'm just a man

[A]I'm not a hero

[E]I　

[E]Don't

[E]Care!

 

We'll carry [A]on

[E]We'll carry [F#m]on

[E]And though you're [D]dead and gone believe me

Your [E]memory will carry [A]on

[E]We'll carry [F#m]on

[E]And though you're [D]broken and defeated

Your [E]weary widow marches [A]on
