[Verse 1]

C                F
Sometimes in our lives
            C
We all have pain
            Em   G
We all have sorrow
C                F
But if we are wise
             C                  G7   C
We know that there's always tomorrow


[Chorus]

C                           F
Lean on me, when you're not strong
                 C
And I'll be your friend
              Em    G
I'll help you carry on
C               F
For it won't be long
              C
Til I'm gonna need
            G7   C
Somebody to lean on


[Verse 2]

C                   F
Please swallow your pride
          C
If I have things
            Em   G
You need to borrow
C              F
For no one can fill
              C
Those of your needs
               G7  C
That you won't let show


[Bridge]

C                             F          C

We all need somebody to lean on
           C                         F          C
And I just might have a problem that you'd understand

We all need somebody to lean on


[Chorus 2]

        C                   F
Lean on me, when you're not strong
                 C
And I'll be your friend
              Em    G
I'll help you carry on
C               F
For it won't be long
              C
Til I'm gonna need
            G7   C
Somebody to lean on

[Verse 3]

C      F

You have to bear
               Em  G
