            I have not come, to testify
            D5
            About our bad bad misfortune
            D5
            And I ain't here a wonderin' why
            A5              F#5   B5      E5
            But I'll live on, and I'll be strong
                                   A5              x7655x
            Cause it just ain't my cross to bear.

                                          A5
            Sat down and wrote you a long letter, just the other day
            D5
            Said as sure as the sun rises
            D5
            Tomorrow I'll be up and on my way
            A5              F#5   B5      E5
            But I'll live on, and I'll be strong
                                   A5              x7655x
            Cause it just ain't my cross to bear.

            Don't reach out for me
            D5
            I'm not gonna carry on
