CAPO I
[INTRO]
D
D G
It ain't easy, the road of life, it ain't easy
D A7
It don't matter if you're black or white, nobody rides for free
D G
Well believe me life is a bittersweet journey
D A7 D
And everybody that starts out in the cradle still ends of up in the grave
[CHORUS]
C G D
Every man's got a mountain to climb
C G D
He's got his own cross to bear
C G D
Well everyday is just another step you take
C G D
On the road that takes you there
C G D
On the road that takes you there
[INTRO]
D G
Well you might be a rich kid, livin' on milk and honey
D A7
Livin' off your daddy's money, but money ain't everything
D G
Can't buy forgiveness, it sure can't buy salvation
D A7 D
But it can numb your senses and tarnish your golden rings
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
C D
You can have nothin' and still have it all
A7 D
Be a blind man and still see
Bm G
You can be locked up in a cell
Em A7
But your heart can still be free (your heart can still be free)
D G
It ain't easy, the road of life, it ain't easy
D A7 D
Everybody's got a cross to bear on the road that takes you there, ah take me there
[SOLO]
[BRIDGE]
D G
It ain't easy, the road of life, it ain't easy
D A7 D
Everybody's got a cross to bear on the road that takes you there
A7 D
Yeah everybody's got a cross to bear on the road that takes you there
