G                               Am7 
 The lonely man I made myself to be              
    A                               C     D 
Is not as bad as some things I have seen      
     G                             Am7 
The picture painted here is not a dream         
    A                        C      D 
The only reality the way it seems          
                                                     
    D 
The happier you fly The sadder you fall         
B                       C 
The laughter in your eyes Is never all        
G                                Am7 
Give me strength to move along 
A                                 C     D 
Give me strength to realize she's gone          
                                                     
G                                     Am7 
I'm riding down swept road in my old car        
    A                              C    D 
The moon is almost full except for star shine   
     G                           Am7 
The party ended long before the night           
    A                                 C      D 
She made me feel alive and that's all right  
                                                     
    D 
The happier you fly The sadder you fall         
B                       C 
The laughter in your eyes Is never all 
G                                Am7 
Give me strength to move along 
A                                 C      D 
Give me strength to realize she's gone

The happier you fly The sadder you fall

Give me strength to move along 
G                                Am7 
Give me strength to move along 
G                                Am7 
Give me strength to move along
