My Brother Taught Me How to Swim
[Verse 1]
Dm Am A# F
My brother taught me how to swim
Gm A# F C
We treaded water underneath the ocean's skin
Dm Am A# F
And then he washed away my sins
Gm A# F C
He held me closer as the tide was coming in
[Pre-Chorus]
(note in case this is confusing at all, the Am, E/Dm(Dm with an E in the base), and C chords are
all transition chords, so you play them two beats before the next chord. The rest of the chords play with
6 beats)
A# Am Gm
But then why, what could I say?
C Dm E/Dm F
What would it mean?
C A# Am Gm
Cause then I, I'd give away
C Dm E/Dm F C
All the love I need
[Chorus]
A#
Just a child, always waiting
C
All along he elevated
Dm
He stayed put while I was wandering
F
Gone so long he started wondering
A# Am Gm C
Why, I got lost
[Verse 2]
Dm Am A# F
My brother taught me how to give
Gm A# F C
He spreads his love until it stretches too thin
Dm Am A# F
Oh how I wanna be like him
Gm A# F C
He takes away the weight before your heart gives in
[Pre-Chorus]
A# Am Gm
But then why, what could I say?
C Dm E/Dm F
What would it mean?
C A# Am Gm
Cause then I, I'd give away
C Dm E/Dm F C
All the love I need
[Chorus]
A#
Just a child, always waiting
C
All along he elevated
Dm
He stayed put while I was wandering
F
Gone so long he started wondering
A# Am Gm C A# C
Why, I got lost
[Bridge]
A# C
I got lost
A#
I got lost
C
If I love the way my brother loves (I got lost)
Dm E/Dm F C
None of it would happen like the way that it was
[Outro]
