Intro: Em C G Em When we were young we were the ones C G The kings and queens, oh yeah we ruled the world Em We smoked cigarettes, man no regrets C G Wish I could relive every single word Em C We've taken different paths and traveled different roads G D I know we'll always end up on the same one when we're old Em C G And when you're in the trenches and you're under fire I will cover you C Em If I was dying on my knees G C You would be the one to rescue me C Em And if you were drowned at sea G C I'd give you my lungs so you could breathe C I've got you brother Bm Em I've got you brother G C I've got you brother Bm Em I've got you brother Em C Oh brother, we go deeper than the ink G Beneath the skin of our tattoos Em Though we don't share the same blood C G You're my brother and I love you, that's the truth Em C We're living different lives, heaven only knows G D If we'll make it back with all our fingers and our toes Em C G 5 years, 20 years come back, we'll always be the same C Em If I was dying on my knees G C You would be the one to rescue me C Em And if you were drowned at sea G C I'd give you my lungs so you could breathe C I've got you brother Bm Em I've got you brother C And if we hit on troubled water Em D I'll be the one to keep you warm and safe C And we'll be carrying each other Em D Until we say goodbye on our dying day C Because I've got you brother Bm Em I've got you brother G C I've got you brother Bm Em I've got you brother C Em If I was dying on my knees G C You would be the one to rescue me C Em And if you were drowned at sea G C I'd give you my lungs so you could breathe C Em Oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh G C Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh C Em Oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh G C Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh C I've got you brother Bm Em I've got you brother
