D7 G7M D/F#
The road is long
C/E Am7
With many a winding turn
D7 Em7 F7M Am7 D7
That leads us to who knows where
G7M D/F# Em7 D#
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
G7M Am7 D7 G7M D7
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
G7M D/F#
So on we go
C/E
His welfare is of my concern
Am7 D7 Em7 F7M Am7 D7
No burden is he to bear, we'll get there
G7M D/F# Em7 D#
For I know, he would not encumber me
G7M Am7 D7 G7M G7
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
C D/C C D/C
If I'm laden at all I'm laden with sadness
Bm7 Dm7 C B Em Em/D Am C/D D7
That everyone's heart isn't filled with the gladness of love for one another
G7M D/F# C/E Am7 D/C
It's a long, long road, from which there is no return
Em F7M Am7 C/D D7
While we're on the way to there why not share
G7M D/F# C/E Am Em D#
And the load, the load doesn't weigh me down at all
Am7 D/C G7M
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
Am7 D/C G7M
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
