            I have not come, to testify
            D9
            About our bad bad misfortune
            Dm9
            And I ain't here a wonderin' why
            A7              F#7   B7      E
            But I'll live on, and I'll be strong
                                   A7              x7655x
            Cause it just ain't my cross to bear.

                                          A7
            Sat down and wrote you a long letter, just the other day
            D9
            Said as sure as the sun rises
            Dm9
            Tomorrow I'll be up and on my way
            A7              F#7   B7      E
            But I'll live on, and I'll be strong
                                   A7              x7655x
            Cause it just ain't my cross to bear.

            Don't reach out for me
