Lyrics
The road is (Bb)long,
(F)with many a (Eb)winding turn (F7)that leads us to (Gm)who knows (Ab)where,
who knows (Cm7)where.
But I'm (Bbmaj7)strong, strong enough to (Eb)carry him.
He ain't (Cm7)heavy,
he's my (Bb)(Cm7)brother.
So on we (Bb)go;
(F)his welfare is (Eb)my concern.
(F7)No burden is (Gm)he to (Ab)bear,
we'll get (Cm7)there.
For I (Bbmaj7)know he would not (Eb)encumber me.
He ain't (Cm7)heavy,
he's my (Bb)brother.
(Cm7)So on we (Bb)brother.
(Bb)If I'm (Ebmaj7)laden at (F)all, I'm (Ebmaj7)laden with (F)sadness that (Dm7)ev'ryone's (Fm7)heart isn't (Ebmaj7)filled with the (Gm)gladness of (Em7)love for one (Cm7)another.
It's a long, long (Bb)road,
(F)from which there is (Eb)no return.
(F7)While we're on our (Gm)way to (Ab)there,
why not (Cm7)share?
And the (Bbmaj7)load doesn't weigh me (Eb)down at all.
He ain't (Cm7)heavy,
(F7)he's my (Bb)brother.
