A                D                  A 
Sometimes in our lives, we all have pain 
            E 
We all have sorrow 
A             D 
But if we are wise 
             A                E  A 
We know that there's always tomorrow 
 

 
A                          D 
Lean on me when you're not strong 
                 A 
And I'll be your friend 
              E 
I'll help you carry on 
A               D 
For it won't be long 
               A 
'Til I'm gonna need 
            E    A 
Somebody to lean on 
 

 
A                   D 
Please swallow your pride 
          A                  E 
If I have things you need to borrow 
A              D 
For no one can fill 
              A 
Those of your needs 
               E   A 
That you won't let show

That you can't carry
