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,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/e/everly_brothers/he_aint_heavy_crd.html ]
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.
