[Intro]
G C D
[Verse 1]
G
Brother, I think it's time we talked
C D
Why do guys like us spend most our lives playing it tough?
G
Oh, and brother, I see this world's got you down
C
You look like you look when you got your heart broke
D
In 7th grade by Katie Brown
[Chorus]
G
We played ball out in the yard
Bm C
We raced our bikes, we wrecked our cars
D
Stayed out late in midnight bars
G
Oh, we got drunk out in the fights
Bm C
Fell for the same girl once or twice
D
And somehow made it out alive
Am D
But in the end, always there for each other
G
Oh, brother
[Verse 2]
Bm C D
When I couldn't see, you always found a way to believe in me
G
You were the quarterback when I rode the bench
The knuckleball nobody could hit
C
If you're the underdog, you're the comeback kid
D
You'll find a way to get through this
[Chorus]
G
We played ball out in the yard
Bm C
We raced our bikes, we wrecked our cars
D
Stayed out late in midnight bars
G
Oh, we got drunk out in the fights
Bm C
Fell for the same girl once or twice
D
And somehow made it out alive
Am D
But in the end, always there for each other
G Bm C D
Brother, oh, brother
[Bridge]
G C
I hope you know I'd take a bullet
G C
Stand out on the frontline
Bm C
Oh, life is short, don't you know it?
Am D
But everybody needs a partner in crime
[Verse 3]
G
You had my back when dad got sick
Bm C
You being there's what did the trick
G
We both thought that that was it
G
Oh, you were my first call that night in jail
Bm C
You rushed in to pay my bail
G
We sure raise a lot of hell
Am D
I still make you swear to never tell my mother
Am D
Oh, we'll always be there for each other
[Outro]
G Bm C D
Brother, oh, brother, yeah
G C D
Oh, brother
