G    D/F#         C/E         Am7
The road is long, with many a winding turn,
D      D#dim   Em        F                  Am7    C/D
That leads us to who knows where, who knows where,
G   D/F#              Em       Eb
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him,
G            Am7 C/D       G  Am7 C/D
He ain't heavy,      he's my brother,

G  D/F#           C/E         Am7
So on we go, his welfare is my concern,
D   D#dim  Em     F               Am7 C/D
No burden is he, to bear, we'll get there,
G    D/F#          Em      Eb  G             Am7
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
If I'm laden at all, then I'm laden with sadness,
     Bm         Dm
That everyone's heart,
C      B7                 Em     Em/D  C  C/B
Isn't filled, with the gladness, of love,
Am7      C/D
For one another.

G   D/F#                  C/E        Am7
It's a long long road, from which there is no return,
D          D#dim    Em      F              Am7     C/D
While we're on our way, to there, why not share,
G     D/F#             Em       Eb
And the load, doesn't weigh me down, at all,
G          Am7   C/D
He ain't heavy,     he's my brother,
