He Ain’t Heavy
Hollies
[G] [D] [Em] [D]
The [G] road is long [D]
With many a [C] winding turns
[A] That [D] leads us to [Em] who knows [F] where
Who knows [Am] where [D]
[D] But I'm [G] stro[D]ng
Strong enough to [Em] carry [Eb] him
[G] He ain't heavy, [Am] [D] he's my [G] brother [Am]
So [D] on we [G] go [D]
His welfare is [C] my concern [Am]
No [D] burden is [Em] he to [F] bear
We'll get [Am] there [D]
For I [G] know [D]
He would not [Em]encumber [Eb] me
[G] He ain't heavy, [Am] [D] he's my [G] brother
[A] [B]
[G] If I'm [C] laden at [D] all
Then I'm[ G] laden with sad[D]ness
That [Bm] everyone's [Dm] heart
Isn't [C] filled [B] with the [Em] gladness [D]
Of [C] love [A] for one an[D]other
[D] It's a long, long [G] road [D]
From which there is [C] no return [Am]
[D] While we're on the [Em] way to [F] there
Why not [Am] share [D]
And the [G] load [D]
Doesn't weigh me [Em] down at [Eb] all
[G] He ain't heavy [D] he's my [G] brother
Instrumental verse:
[D] He's my [G] brother [D] [Em] [D]
He ain't [G] heavy [D], he's my [C] brother [G]
