INTRO is pretty simple D G D D and the song is in 4/4 time
D Second Street and Broadway, G sittinâ?? in a doorway
D Head held in his hands
ELooked to all the world, like he was A prayinâ??
D Foot wrapped in an old rag, G bottle in a brown bag
D I saw him try to stand
E Then I heard the words that he was A sayinâ?? ooh yeah
He said:
(Chorus)
D Come on, Carrie, G carry me a little D farther
Come on, Carrie, carry me one more A mile
D I donâ??t know where itâ??s leading to
But I G know I can make it if I E leaned on you, so
D Come on, Carrie, G carry me a little
D I carried you, now G carry me a little
D Come on, Carrie, G carry me a little D while
(verse 2)
D Well he struggled to his feet, and G Staggered down the street
To the D window of a five and dime
E He stood and laughed a while at his re A flection
D Then I heard him shouting G something â??bout a mountain
D He could surely climb
If E she was only there to point the right dir A ection
But she ainâ??t no, he said:
(Chorus)
D Come on, Carrie, G carry me a little D farther
Come on, Carrie, carry me one more A mile
D I donâ??t know where itâ??s leading to
But I G know I can make it if I E leaned on you, so
D Come on, Carrie, G carry me a little
D I carried you, now G carry me a little
D Come on, Carrie, G carry me, a little D while
G Yeah Carry me, D Carrie, you got to carry G me
Carry me! D G Yeah! D
G D G
D Ah, no! Carry me, G Carrie
G You got to carry D me (Carry me!)
Got to carry me G (C-C-C-Carrie)
Got to carry D me (I carried you)
Carry me, G Carrie (oh lonely me!)
Carry me D Carrie (Ah, yeah)
Got to G carry, got to carry, girl you got to carry D me!
