Tim McGraw – We Carry On (Guitar)

   C                                         C9
He hasn't seen a drop of rain for months it seems

F                                         F9
Rollin' river is nothing but a trickling stream

     C                               C9
The crops are dying in the harsh sunlight

F                          F9                    
The dust on his tongue is dry

    Am                               F
The fatted calf is down to skin and bones

         C  C9  C

[tab]  C                                    C9
Alone in the city and she's only seventeen

         F                                    F9
The boy left her black and blue in the street so mean

      C                                         C9
Just twelve weeks along and she's got a life inside

F                               F9
Says she's never ever felt so alone

Am                                   F
She walks in the shelter, they say "welcome home"

             C
And we carry on

Dm        C/E    F
When our lives come undone

         C
We carry on

 Dm               C/E         F
Cause there's promise in the morning sun

         Am
We carry on

                       F           C/E
As the dark surrenders to the dawn

        Bb             F
We were born to overcome

         C
We carry on

           F
Beyond the picket fences and the oil wells

    C
The happy endings and the fairy tales

G                                      Dm
Is the reality of shattered lives and broken dreams

         C  C9  C        F  F9  F (x2)  Bb F
We carry on       Carry on

          C                               C9
It's the family that grieves for a lost loved one

          F                                     F9
It's the soldier who won't leave til the job is done

          C                               C9
It's the addict trying to turn his life around

      F                                       
It's picking yourself off the ground when you've been knocked down

     C                                          C9
He stands in the field, cooled by the winds of change

      F                                     F9
She smiles as her baby moves and it starts to rain
