Verse 1: 0:10
             G
The road is long,
D              C          | Am7
  With many a winding turn
      D           Em        F
That lead us to who knows where,
            Am7
Who knows where.
0:36
D7           G
  But I'm strong,
D                Em       D#
  Strong enough to carry him.

Verse 2: 1:01
          G
So on we go,
D                 C        | Am7
  His welfare is my concern,
    D         Em    F
No burden is he to bear,
            Am7
We'll get there.
1:26
D7        G
  For I know
D              Em        D#
  He would not encumber me.
G
  He ain't heavy,
Am7         G    | Am7 G7
  He's my brother.

        C       D
If I'm laden at all,
     C          D
I'm laden with sadness
     Bm          Dm
That ev'ryone's heart
       C     B7            Em G7
Isn't filled    with the gladness
    C   A7          Am7 D7!
Of love    for one another.

Verse 3: 2:28
                   G
It's a long, long road
D                      C       | Am7
  From which there is no return,
       D            Em      F
While we're on the way to there,
          Am7
Why not share.
2:55
D7         G
  And the load
D                Em        D#
  Doesn't weigh me down at all.

Am7         G ->
  He's my brother.
