Ev'ry road thro' life is a long long road

Filled with joys and sorrows too

As we journey on how your heart will yearn
        A                   D
For the things most dear to you

With wealth and love 'tis so but onward we must go

Keep right on round the bend

Verse 2
G
With a big stout heart to a long steep hill
                 D      G
We may get there with a smile
                                D
With a good kind thought and an end in view
                 A      D
We may cut short many a mile
D
So let courage ev'ry day be your guiding star alway
