Lean On Me (Bill Withers acoustic guitar cover) - sung by Jack Marti

"As ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise." Luke 6:31

I heard this song not long ago for the first time in a long time, and I said to myself, "hmm, that song has a good message, and I could probably sing it and put it up on my channel." I had no idea how challenging it would be for me to do this song! It sounded so simple... So anyway, here's my feeble attempt. Hopefully, by God's grace, it will bless someone.

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

I can never find a good tutorial on this! And I love this song!

@chunksthemonkey1 I just learned it by ear. I'd be glad to show you how to play it if you could come over to my house, but I've never made a tutorial video. Maybe one day I'll try.
