[Intro]
Bm D Em Bm
[Verse 1]
I'm crBmaving sweet salvDation
From the dEmeep end of my miBmnd
'Cause I cBman't help seeing crDimson
In a crEmystal clear blue sBmky
[Pre-Chorus]
And if Emno god can save me
IEm'll take the weight alone
[Chorus]
And carry my sBmoul (carry my soul)
All on my Aown (carry my soul)
Lead it to the lEmight, light
When the wGorld rolls
I never let Bmgo (carry my soul)
Take care of my Aown (carry my soul)
Lead it to the lEmight, light
When the wGorld rolls
[Verse 2]
And I fBmeel just like a stDranger
In a tEmown that's not half mBmine
I'm just wBmaiting for something gDreater
I'm just waEmiting 'till the stars aBmlign
[Pre-Chorus]
And if Emno god can save me
EmI'll take the weight alone
[Chorus]
And carry my sBmoul (carry my soul)
All on my Aown (carry my soul)
Lead it to the lEmight, light
When the wGorld rolls
I never let Bmgo (carry my soul)
Take care of my Aown (carry my soul)
Lead it to the lEmight, light
When the wGorld rAolls
[Verse 3]
EmAnd maybe someday I will Dsee
Every color in betBmween
Every branch that was unAreached
But undersEmtand I will need no holy hDand
I'm a rolling stone and I Bmkeep on rolling
'Till it makes a Aman of me
[Chorus]
And carry my sBmoul (carry my soul)
All on my Aown (carry my soul)
Lead it to the lEmight, light
When the wGorld rAolls
I never let Bmgo (carry my soul)
Take care of my Aown (carry my soul)
Lead it to the lEmight, light
When the wGorld rAolls
[Outro]
Bm(Carry my soul)
A(Carry my soul)
Em   G A
Bm(Carry my soul)

I'm craving sweet salvation

Em Bm

From the deep end of my mind

'Cause I can't help seeing crimson

Em Bm

In a crystal clear blue sky

[Pre-Chorus]

And if no god can save me

I'll take the weight alone

[Chorus]

And carry my soul (carry my soul)

All on my own (carry my soul)

Lead it to the light, light

When the world rolls

I never let go (carry my soul)

Take care of my own (carry my soul)

Lead it to the light, light

When the world rolls

[Verse 2]

And I feel just like a stranger

In a town that's not half mine

I'm just waiting for something greater

I'm just waiting 'till the stars align

And if no god can save me

I'll take the weight alone

When the world rolls

[Verse 3]

And maybe someday I will see

Every color in between

Every branch that was unreached

Em D

But understand I will need no holy hand

I'm a rolling stone and I keep on rolling

'Till it makes a man of me

[Chorus]

And carry my soul (carry my soul)

All on my own (carry my soul)

Lead it to the light, light

When the world rolls

I never let go (carry my soul)
