D
It's times like these I want to disappear
D
With this dagger in my back and a six pack of beer
D
’Cause it's abundantly clear
C Bb
I'm another one mired in the meanwhile
D
Will this bottle give me good advice
D
Will it sell me salvation at a wholesale price
D
Going once going twice
C
I’m another one
Bb D
Stuck here at the turnstile
[Chorus 1]
A F G D
I got pretty high but it's long come and gone
A F G D A
Just give me the strength to carry on, carry on, carry on
[Verse 2]
D
I spent all my money on rock and roll
D
That crap top 40 ain't got no soul
D
It's like a big black hole
C
C'mon people
Bb
Is there anybody out there
D
I bet wrong, I lost every dime
D
There's no accounting for taste
It's a waste of time
D
Ain't no reason or rhyme
C
C’mon people
Bb D
You’re making them millionaires
[Chorus 2]
A F
I don't need no million dollars
G D
Mine’s come and gone
A F G D A
Just give me the strength to carry on, carry on, carry on
[Chorus 3]
A F G D
And in the meanwhile, be it right, be it wrong
A F G D
I'm doing time for a crime I haven't done
A F G D
Someday I'll find that brilliant light breaking dawn
A F G D A
Until then, give me strength to carry on carry on carry on
