I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say

Lay your weary head to rest,   don't you cry no more

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man
It surely means that I don't know
 
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say

Am    C      G       F     Am          C          G
Carry on, my wayward son,  there'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest,   don't you cry no more
