Chris de Burgh - Carry Me

carry me like a fire in your heart

songwriter chris de burgh

G G Em D
there is an answer , some day we will know ,
D G Em D
and you will ask her , why she had to go ,
Bm Em Bm Em
we live and die , we laugh and we cry ,
C G
and you must take away the pain ,
C D G
before you can begin to live again;
G D G
so let it start , my friend , let it start ,
C G D
let the tears come rolling from your heart ,
D Em C G D
and when you need a light in the lonely nights ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart;
G Em D
there is a river rolling to the sea ,
G Em D
you will be with her for all eternity ,
Bm Em Bm Em
but we that remain need you here again ,
C G
so hold her in your memory
C D G
and begin to make the shadows disappear;
G D G
yes let it start , my friend , let it start ,
C G D
let the love come rolling from your heart ,
Em C G D
and when you need a light in the lonely nights ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart;
G D G
so let it start , my friend , let it start ,
C G D
let the love come rolling from your heart ,
Em C G D
and when you need a light in the lonely nights ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart ,
Em D G
carry me like a fire in your heart .
