sometimes in our lives, we all have pain, we all have sorrow
C   C  D  E   F     F  E    D    C       C D    E  B C
but if we are wise, we know that there's always tomorrow

lean on me when you're not strong, and i'll be your friend, i'll help you carry on
for it won't be long, til i'm gonna need, somebody to lean on

please swallow your pride, if i have things, you need to borrow
for no one can fill, those of your needs, that you won't let show


[drum fill, maybe play around with C, end with B C on 'lean on']
you just call on me brother when you need a hand
we all need somebody to lean on
i just might have a problem that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on


lean on me when you're not strong, and i'll be your friend, i'll help you carry on
for it won't be long, til i'm gonna need, somebody to lean on


you just call on me brother if you need a friend
we all need somebody to lean on
i just might have a problem that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on


if there is a load, you have to bear, that you can't carry
i'm right up the road, i'll share your load, if you just call me


D    C
call me (if you need a friend)
call me

(fade and repeat)
