[Verse 1]
A
There's blood on the water
C#m
Tears in the sky
D
The sun is in the shadow
Dm
So what's the use to try
A
All your blue jean friends are faded
C#m
And giving up the cause
D
It's you against the world now
Dm
And you'll carry on because

You know they're wrong

Beautiful dreamers, they're wrong

Some folks say you're crazy

With the way it's always been

To dreamers everywhere

All the born believers

Who care enough to dare to

Carry on

You've got to carry on
