Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][C]

[Verse 1]
I [C]chased you [F]into the [C]light
Yeah, I stayed there to see my[G]self pure
All the [C]ashes and [F]scars they [C]fail
They pale in com[G]parison to [C]yours

[Pre-chorus 1]
There were [Am]footprints the [G]size of the [C]universe
There were [Am]fortunes that [G]no one could [C]earn
So I chased you [F]farther [C]still
And I hope that I [G]never [C]re turn

[Chorus 1]
From the [F]riv[C]er's [G]mouth
To the [F]moun[C]tain [G]peak
Through the [F]great [C]di [G]vide
and the [C]val[G]ley [Am]deep
I [F]need you to [G]carry [C]me
[F]Car[C]ry [G]me
[F]Car[C]ry [G]me, I'm on my way[F][C][G]
But I'm [C]in [G]too [Am]deep
I [F]need you to [G]carry [C]me

[Verse 2]
You were [C]calling me, [F]into the [C]deep
Into waters that no map could [G]find
You were [C]calling me
[F]Out beyond my [C]fears
Where my darkness finds [G]rest in your [C]light

[Pre-chorus 2]
I found a [Am]fortress where [G]I could surr[C]ender
Where my [Am]shame didn't [G]hide what I [C]lacked
And so I chased you [F]out farther [C]still
'Cause I know that I ain't [G]never coming [C]back

[Chorus 2]
From the [F]riv[C]er's [G]mouth
To the [F]moun[C]tain [G]peak
From the [F]great [C]di [G]vide
and the [C]o c[G]eans d[Am]eep
I [F]need you to [G]carry [C]me
[F]Car[C]ry [G]me
[F]Car[C]ry [G]me, I'm on my way[F][C][G]
But I'm [C]in [G]too [Am]deep
I [F]need you to [G]carry [C]me

[Bridge 1]
I found a [Am]place where the [G]past was for[C]given
Where my mis[Am]takes met a [G]grace
I couldn't [C]earn
And so I piled up my excuses
and de[Dm]fenses in the [C]night
Then I lit a match, stepped [G]back
and watched them [C]burn

[Chorus 3]
From the [F]riv[C]er's [G]mouth
To the [F]moun[C]tain [G]peak
Through the [F]great [C]di [G]vide
where the [C]wa [G]ters [Am]meet
I [F]need you to [G]carry [C]me
[F]Car[C]ry [G]me
[F]Car[C]ry [G]me, I'm on my way[F][C][G]
But I'm [C]in [G]too [Am]deep
I [F]need you to [G]carry [Am]me
I [F]need you to [G]carry [C]me

[Outro 1]
From the [F]day I was [G]born
to the [C]end of [Am]these seas
I [F]need you to [G]carry [C]me
