She was seven and I was just ten..
Bb F
when she moved next door to the house
we lived in.
Bb F
She followed me around and got in my hair..
C F
wherever I looked, she'd be there.
#2.
F Bb F
An awkward little girl with big brown eyes..
Bb F
she'd ask me over for tea and mud pies.
Bb F
A freckle-faced angel, always in my way..
C F F7
but I couldn't refuse when she'd say..
CHORUS:
Bb F C
Big brother, take me with you..wherever
F
you're going I want to go, too.
Bb F
You're so silly, the things that you do..
C F......F#
but big brother, how I love you.
#3.
F# B F#
As she grew older, I'd take her around..
B F#
we'd go to the fair when it came to town.
B F#
The side-shows and candy would keep us all day..
C# F# F#7
and when we were late, she would say..
BRIDGE:
B F#
Mother, there's no need to worry and fuss..
C# F#
my big brother can take care of us.

He's like one of our own family..big brother

G C G
So, the years flew by, then one night in the spring..
C G
all of a sudden she was eighteen.
C G
No longer the little girl I'd known all my life..and I
D G
wanted to make her my wife.
#5.
G C G C
But a few days later, her heart all aglow..in order that
G
I'd be the first one to know.
C G D
She brought him over and in her sweet way..she told me of
G G7
their wedding day.
OUTRO:
C G D
Big brother, I'd been so long..but now big brother will
G
have to be strong.
C G D
So, I'll turn and hide these tears in my eyes..I can't let
G
