When I was a young boy
Em             D
My father took me into the 
C       G/B             Am     D
City to see a marching band

           G           D/F#
He said, "son when you grow up
      Em          D             C           G/B            Am        D
Would you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?" 
          G         D/F#
He said "will you defeat them
      Em          D             C           G/B                  Am       D
Your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?" 
        G            D/F#
Because one day i'll leave you
   Em         D
A phantom to lead you in the
C          G/B              Am    D   G
Summer, to join the black parade"

     G               D/F#         D4/F        C
Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me
                   G                  D
And other times I feel like I should go
      G                 D/F#               D4/F          C
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets
                         G               D
And when you're gone we want you all to know

             G
We'll carry on
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on
     D             C
And though you're dead and gone believe me 
      D
Your memory will

Carry on 
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on 
    D      C
And in my heart I can't contain it 
    D
The anthem won't explain it 

   G              D/F#         D4/F     C
A woman sends you reeling from decimated dreams 
                 G                D
Your misery and hate will kill us all
    G                 D/F#         
So paint it black and take it back 
     D4/F             C
Lets shout it loud and clear 
               G
Defiant to the end 
             D
We hear the call 

         G
To carry on 
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on 
      D            C

Carry on 
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on
     D             C
And though you're broken and defeated 
     D            D
Your weary widow marches 

Bm                            Em
On and on we carry through the fears 
Ooh oh ohhhh 
Bm                         Em
Disappointed faces of your peers 
Ooh oh ohhhh 
C                         Cm
Take a look at me cause I could not care at all

  Do or die 
D
  You'll never make me 
Em                   D                      C
   Because the world,  will never take my heart 
             G
You can try,   you'll never break me 
C                 D                      G
  You want it all,  you wanna play this part 

I won't explain
D
  Or say i'm sorry
Em                D                     C
   I'm unashamed,   i'm gonna show my scars 
              G
