F#m D The cry of the city like a siren's song F#m D Wailing over the rooftops the whole night long F#m D Saw a shooting star like a diamond in the sky E Must be someone's soul passing by F#m These are the streets D Where we used to run where your Papa's from F#m These are the days D Where you become what you become F#m These are the streets D Where the story's told The truth unfolds E Darkness settles in Oh-Oh D A E F#m Shine your light down on me D A E F#m Lift me up so I can see D A E F#m Shine your light when you're gone D A Give me the strength E A D ? A To carry on, carry on F#m Don't wanna be a hero D Just an everyday man F#m D Trying to do the job the very best he can F#m D But now it's like living on borrowed time E Out on the rim , over the line F#m D Always tempting fate like a game of chance F#m D Never wanna stick around to the very last dance F#m D Sometimes I stumble and take a hard fall E Loose hold your grip off the wall D A E F#m Shine your light down on me D A E F#m Lift me up so I can see D A E F#m Shine your light when you're gone D A E Give me the strength to carry on D ? A Carry on Bm E I thought I saw him walking by the side of the road D A Maybe trying to find his way home Bm He's here but not here E He's gone but not gone D E E Just hope he knows if I get lost D A E F#m Shine your light down on me D A E F#m Lift me up so I can see D A E F#m Shine your light when you're gone D A E Give me the strength to carry on A Carry on
