C F x2
[Verse]
C F
In this world I've gained my knowledge,
C F
And for it had to pay,
G F
And though I never went to college,
C F
I've heard the wise men say,
C F
Life is like a mighty river,
C F
Rolling on from day to day,
G F
Men are vessels launched upon it,
C F
Sometimes wrecked and cast away.
[Chorus]
C G
Do your best for one another,
Am F
When you're slipping in between,
C G
Help a worn And weary brother,
Am F
Pulling hard against the stream
F C F
Pulling hard against the stream
[Verse]
C F
Many a bright, good-hearted fellow,
C F
Many a noble-minded man
G F
Finds himself in water shallow,
C F
Then come on - help him if you can.
C F
Some succeed at every turning,
C F
Fortune favours every scheme
G F
Others, too, though more deserving.
C F
Have to pull hard against the stream.

If the wind is in your favour,
C F
And you've weathered every storm,

Think of those who, luckless, labour,

Never get fair winds at all.
