Em
When the whole world lets you down
C                    G
And there's nowhere for you to turn
      Em                               Am       D
Cause all of your best friends let you down-own-own

And you tried to accumulate
But the world is full of hate
So all of your best thoughts, just adrift through
space

Chorus:
G                C                G
I know a place where we can carry on
G                C                G
I know a place where we can carry on
C            G    C           G
We can carry on, we can carry on
C            G    C           G
We can carry on, we can carry on

And this people like you, ooh people like me
People need to be free yeah
There's a place in the sun where there is love for
everyone
Where we can be yeah

Chorus:
I know a place where we can carry on
I know a place where we can carry on
We can carry on, we can carry on
We can carry on, we can carry on

Yeah when the whole world lets you down
And there's nowhere for you to turn
Cause all of your best friends have a let you
d-down, down-own-own

And you tried to accumulate
But the world is full of hate
So all of your best thoughts, just adrift through
space

Chorus:
I know a place where we can carry on
I know a place where we can carry on
We can carry on, we can carry on
We can carry on, we can carry on
We can carry on, we can carry on
We can carry on, we can carry on...
