Tom: C
C F C
Tempted and tried we're oft made to wonder
D G
Why it should be thus all the day long
C F C
While there are others living about us
G7 C
Never molested though in the wrong
[Chorus]
F C
Farther along we'll know all about it
D G
Farther along we'll understand why
C F C
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
G7 C
We'll understand it all by and by
[Verse 2}
C F C
When death has come and taken our loved ones
D G
It leaves our homes so lonely and drear
C F C
Then do we wonder why others prosper
G7 C
Living so wicked year after year
[Chorus]
F C
Farther along we'll know all about it
D G
Farther along we'll understand why
C F C
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
G7 C
We'll understand it all by and by
[Verse 3}
C F C
When we see Jesus coming in glory
D G
When he comes down from his home in the sky
C F C
Then we shall meet him in that bright mansion
G7 C
We'll understand it all by and by
[Chorus]
F C
Farther along we'll know all about it
D G
Farther along we'll understand why
C F C
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
G7 C
We'll understand it all by and by
