[Verse 1]
[C]Tra[G]vel[C]in'[G] do[C]wn[G]
a lonely [C]highway
I knew not [F]where the road would en[C]d
Not [F]a penny in my [C]pocket
All [G]a lone without [C]a friend
In [G]a little country village
[C]I met a m[F]an and he was bli[C]nd
As [F]I helped him cross the [C]high- way
[F]Oh! lord I cried thy [C]burdens
[G]are greater [C]than mine.
I can [F]see

[Verse 2]
the light of day
[C]I need not feel my way
Yes, thy burdens are [G]greater than [C]mine.

[Verse 3]
Met [G]a lad while on [C]my travels
Tryin' [F]hard to play [C]the game
Though his [F]leg was very [C]crippled
And he [G]could not speak [C]his name
Yet, he [G]smiled in [C]understandin'
Though life [F]to him had been [C]unkind
And as [F]I watched, I cried in [C]sorrow
Oh! [F]lord [C]his burdens
[G]are greater than [C]mine.
I can [F]speak my

[Verse 4]
name aloud
Make [C]my way among the crowd
Yes, his burdens [G]are greater than [C]mine.

[Verse 5]
Just by [G]chance I passed a grave[C]yard
I saw [F]a young man kneelin' [C]there
In [F]his hand, there were some [C]roses
On [G]his lips, there was a pray[C]er
On [G]a stone, these words
were [C]written
"Your soul [F]is god's,
your mem'ry [C]mine"
And as [F]I watched, I cried in sor[C]row
Oh! [F]lord I see his bur[C]dens
are [G]greater than [C]mine.
