Intro:

G  D/F#  C/E  D

G               D/F#         C/E         Am7  D      D/D#  Em        F
The road is long,with many a winding turn,that leads us to who knows where,

          Am7 C/D D       G   D/F#                 Em       D#   G
who knows where,  but i'm strong, strong enough to carry him,    he ain't heavy,

Am7 C/D       G  Am7 C/D          G  D/F#           C/E      Am7  D   D/D#   Em
      he's my brother,  so on we go, his welfare is my concern, no burden is he,

   F              Am7 C/D D       G    D/F#            Em      D# G          Am7
to bear, we'll get there,   for i know, he would not encumber me, he aint heavy,

C/D          G  Am7
he's my brother,

       C         D/C       C            D/C           Bm         Dm
If i'm leaning at all, i'm leaning with sadness, that everyone's heart,

      C      B         Em     Em/D  C  C/B Am7    C/D   D
isn't filled, with the gladness, of love, for one another.

                 G   D/F#                  C/E   Am7  D          D/D#    Em
I'ts a long long road, from which there is no return, while we're on the way,

   F              Am7 C/D D         G  Bm D/F# D  D/F#  D  Em       D#
to there, why not share,    and the load, doesn't weigh me down, at all,

G          Am7 C/D          G
he ain't heavy,     he's my brother,


he's my brother, he ain't heavy,


he's my brother, he ain't heavy.
