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

[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
