A              E                  B           C#m   C#sus2 C#m 
  Remember the time we shared our first cigarette?
A              E              B           C#m   C#sus2 C#m
       Late at night Whiskey and the Fountainhead
A                      E                  B              C#m   C#sus2 C#m
   And though you were younger Still you stole the first kiss
A                      E        B            A
      Well it seems so long ago We were just kids

[Chorus]
B                                    E                 A
    Brother I thought that you would be there till the end
B                                E                 A
    You were my rock upon which I could always depend
B                                E                 A
    Together we fought and never left each other's side
B                                       E           F#m
    Brother I reached out but you were taken by the tide

Taken by the tide

A              E          B           C#m   C#sus2 C#m 
    We swam in cenotes in southern Mexico
A                        E             B                    C#m   C#sus2 C#m 
    Though the water was warm Well the cracks had started to show
A              E                   B            C#m   C#sus2 C#m 
   You watched the Pacific Sunrise on New Year's Day
A         E                        B            A
  Next to me but your heart was a million miles away

[Chorus]
B                                E                 A
Brother I thought that you would be there till the end
B                                E                 A
"You are my watchman," I said, "You are my best friend"
B                             E              A
"It's time for me to go," so softly you replied
B                                  E            F#m
Brother I reached out but you were taken by the tide

You and I know we said some things we never meant
B                            E                 A
Forever our dreams will burn upon the funeral pyre
