[Intro]

D-Gm-D-Gm

[Verse 1]

D Gm D Am-D7

Life is not all that bad, my friend, hmmm

If you believe in yourself

If you believe there's someone

F#m

Who walks through life with you

B Em

You'll never be alone

Just learn to reach out,

F#m

And open your heart

B Em

Lift up hands to God,

A D

And He'll show you the way.

[Chorus]
 Am D7 G A/G

And He said, "Cast your burdens upon Me

F#m B

Those who are heavily laden,

Em A

Come to Me, all of you who are tired

D Am-D7

Of carrying heavy loads,

G A/G

For the yoke I will give you is easy

F#m B

And My burden is light

Em A D

Come to Me and I will give you rest."

[Interlude]

D-Gm

[Verse 2]

D Gm

When you feel the world

D Am-D7
 Is tumblin' down on you,

And you have no one

A F#m-B

That you can hold on to,

Em

Just face the rising sun

And you'll see hope,

F#m B

And there's no need to run

Em

Lift up your hands to God,

A D

And He'll make you feel all right.

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus moving chords 1/2 step higher,
