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
