To Carry You Away

CONNOR SEARLE

With Hammer-on strumming

Intro:

Am F C C/B C C/B Am

Verse:

There must be something,

That I’m missing here.

As I’m watching you,

Cry yourself to sleep.

All I want is to,

Wipe your tears away.

Why won’t you hear me,

Calling through your pain?

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

It’s raining outside,

Your bedroom window.

Those are my tears,

Falling down for you.

Can’t you see me,

Reaching out to take your hand.

I’m here to carry you,

Out of this storm.

Interlude

Prechorus:

F5

Don’t you know,

G5

Just how much I love you?

Can’t you see,

Just how much I care?

I feel your pain,

It’s so unfair a burden.

But If you’ll take my hand,

You’ll never be alone.

Chorus:

Am               G      

‘Cause I will walk,

F2       G2

Beside you

Am                     G  

And we’ll leave our,

F2

Footprints in the sand

Am               G

And when you no longer,

F2       G2

Have the strength to stand,

Am               G     G2 F2 

It’s then I’ll carry y - ou.

N.C.

Please just take my hand.

Verse 2:

It’s Friday evening,

This depression closes in.

They tell you’ll be fine,

But you know it’s a lie.

Everything that you feel,

Is tearing you apart.

And I’m still waiting here,

To wipe your tears away.

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

Interlude 2:

Am G Am G

Bridge:

Am      F              C              G                      

Let me take your fears away.

Let me wipe your tears away.

And let me carry you away

And bring light to your dark world.

Let me carry you away.

Interlude (carry you away)

Verse 3:

It’s Friday evening finally,

A moment’s quiet has broken through.

You feel me sitting here,

Crying next to you.

And you ask me,

Did I mean what I said?

And I look at you and say

Interlude (I swear, yeah I swear)

It’s been raining outside,

That tearstained window.

Those have been my tears,

Falling down for you.

And I’ve been waiting,

To carry you from this storm.

I swear you’ll never have to

Cry alone again.
