[Intro]
D  Bm  A  D  G  D
 
 
[Verse 1]
A           D           G             D
Tempted and tried we're often made to wonder
                 Bm   E7          A
Why it should be thus all the day long
D                      G       D
While there are others living about us
           Bm  A             D     G  D
Never molested though in the wrong
 
 
[Chorus]
A        D          G         D
Farther along we'll know all about it
              Bm    E          A
Farther along we'll understand why
D                          G           D
Cheer up, my brother, come sing in the sunshine
                 Bm A          D  G  D
We'll understand it all by and by
 
 
[Verse 2]
A              D        G         D
When death has come and taken our loved ones
                   Bm E7         A
It leaves our home so lonely and drear
D                    G          D
Then shall we wonder why others prosper
            Bm   A          D    G  D
Living so wicked year after year
 
 
[Chorus]
A        D          G         D
Farther along we'll know all about it
              Bm    E          A
Farther along we'll understand why
D                          G           D
Cheer up, my brother, come sing in the sunshine
                 Bm A          D  G  D
We'll understand it all by and by
 
 
[Verse 3]
A             D          G          D
Faithful till death said our loving master
                Bm E7        A
A few more days to labor and wait
D                      G            D
Toils of the road will then seem as nothing
                      Bm   A         D    G  D
When we sweep through that beautiful gate
 
 
[Chorus]
A        D          G         D
Farther along we'll know all about it
              Bm    E7         A
Farther along we'll understand why
D                          G           D
Cheer up, my brother, come sing in the sunshine
                 Bm A          D
We'll understand it all by and by
 
 
[Outro]
G          D     Bm A          G A D
We'll understand it all by and by
