Lonesome Valley  

A                   D        A
You gotta walk that lonesome valley,
                  E7    A
You gotta walk it by yourself,
       D                    A
Nobody here can walk it for you,
                  E7    A
You gotta walk it by yourself.

Jesus walked this lonesome valley,
He had to walk it by Himself;
O, nobody else could walk it for Him,
He had to walk it by Himself.


My father had to walk this lonesome valley,
He had to walk it for himself;
O, nobody else could walk it for him,
He had to walk it for himself.


We have to walk this lonesome valley,
We have to walk it by ourselves;
O, nobody else can walk it for us,
We have to walk it by ourselves.


You must go and stand your trial,
You must stand it by yourself;
O, nobody else can walk it for you,
You have to stand it by yourself.
