Chords

[Verse 1]
            C       F                G
There is an answer, some day we will know,

             C        F             G
And you will ask her, why she had to go,

   Em       Am       Em          Am
We live and die, we laugh and we cry,

F                 C
And you must take away the pain,

  F              G           C
Before you can begin to live again;
[Chorus]
          C         G              C
So let it start, my friend, let it start,

        F          C                 G
Let the tears come rolling from your heart,

             Am     F            C      F
And when you need a light in the lonely nights,

      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,

      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
[Verse 2]
           C     F              G
There is a river rolling to the sea,

            C            F         G
You will be with her for all eternity,

    Em        Am         Em        Am
But we that remain need you here again,

   F                 C
So hold  her in your memory

    F                 G           C
And begin to make the shadows disappear;
[Chorus]
           C         G              C
Yes let it start, my friend, let it start,

        F          C                 G
Let the love come rolling from your heart,

             Am     F            C      F
And when you need a light in the lonely nights,

      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,

      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
[Outro]
          C         G              C
So let it start, my friend, let it start,

        F          C                 G
Let the love come rolling from your heart,

             Am     F            C      F
And when you need a light in the lonely nights,

      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,

      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
[Coda]
      C         G            Am    F
Carry me like a fire in your heart,

      C         G                  C
Carry me like a fire in your heart;
