HE AIN’T HEAVY, HE’S MY BROTHER

 

Intro:  A (3x)

 

                  A-E                         D

The road is long, with many a winding

                                      F#m

0Turn that leads us to Him who knows

  G                         E-E7             A-E

Where, who knows where but I’m strong

                   D    Dm

Enough to carry him.

             A-A6-D-E             A

He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother.

 

(same chords as 1st verse)

So on we go, his welfare is my concern

No burden is he to hear. we’ll get there  For I know he will never trouble me.

He ain’t heavy he’s my brother.

 

Refrain:

 

         F#m       E             F#m        E

If I’m laden at all, If I’m laden with sadness.

AM7        A7      C#(sus)   C#

That everyone’s heart isn’t filled with

  F#m          B     B7            E-(sus) E

Gladness of love for one another.

 

(same chords as 1st verse)

It’s a long, long road from which

There is no return while we’re on

Our way to there, why not share and

The load doesn’t weigh me down at all. He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother.
