Carry Me Over
words and music by Arlo Guthrie 

          G (320003@1)                                   C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)  GThere's (320003@1)a tavern up on the roadside   I must be coming into town
                                        F (133211@1)                 DThe (xx0232@1)moon must be in Aries   Because the truck ain't slowing down
Am (x02210@1)               C (x32010@1)                        D (xx0232@1)      G (320003@1)
Pulled back on the throttle   I've been doing that all day
                                         C (x32010@1)   D (xx0232@1) GLooking (320003@1)ahead for a right-hand turn   To carry me away

        G (320003@1)                                 C (x32010@1)       D (xx0232@1)    GThere's (320003@1)times for understanding    It don't seem like one of those
                                           F (133211@1)             DThe (xx0232@1)times are too demanding    When you're hanging by your nose
       Am (x02210@1)               C (x32010@1)                        D (xx0232@1)     GSo (320003@1)why don't you just get out of here   And leave me here to pray
                                                          C (x32010@1)   D (xx0232@1)  GThat (320003@1)one of these mornings the sun's going to rise    And carry me away

CHORUS:
G (320003@1)      C (x32010@1)D (xx0232@1)   G (320003@1)                C (x32010@1)D (xx0232@1)   GCarry (320003@1)me over the highway   Carry me over the sky
         C (x32010@1) D (xx0232@1)  Em (022000@1)                 C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)     GCarry (320003@1)me over the loneliness   That I'm feeling here tonight

                                                    C (x32010@1)       D (xx0232@1)    G (320003@1) 
You know I'm feeling just like a riptide    And I'm feeling a little scared
                                     F (133211@1)         DA (xx0232@1)twisted maze of old highways     Nobody has repaired
         Am (x02210@1)                  C (x32010@1)                      D (xx0232@1)  GIt (320003@1)ain't nothing that can't be handled    Like an actor in a play
                                                C (x32010@1)           D (xx0232@1)      GWho (320003@1)becomes enraged, jumps from the stage   And gets a little carried away


                                      C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   GNow (320003@1)all of your highways   Don't mean much to me no more
                                            F (133211@1)             DI've (xx0232@1)been on all of your highway roads   Of that you can be sure
      Am (x02210@1)               C (x32010@1)                                 D (xx0232@1)     GBut (320003@1)I still get lost on all of them roads    I can't seem to find my way
                                           C (x32010@1)   D (xx0232@1) GI (320003@1)know there's one out there somewhere  To carry me away
