     Gm
When we were young we were the ones
    D#                                     A#
The kings and queens, oh yeah we ruled the world
          Gm
We smoked cigarettes, man no regrets
     D#                          A#
Wish I could relive every single word

                      Gm                           D#
We've taken different paths and traveled different roads
                    A#                                F
I know we'll always end up on the same one when we're old
     Gm
And when you're in the trenches
           D#                      A#
and you're under fire I will cover you

Chorus:
         D#          Gm
If I was dying on my knees
                 A#            D#
You would be the one to rescue me
       D#                  Gm
And if you were drowned at sea
                 A#                  D#
I'd give you my lungs so you could breathe

              D#
I've got you brother
     Dm       Gm
I've got you brother
     A#       D#
I've got you brother
     Dm       Gm
I've got you brother

Oh, brother, we go deeper than the ink
Beneath the skin of our tattoos
Though we don't share the same blood
You're my brother and I love you, that's the truth

We're living different lives
Heaven only knows
If we'll make it back with all our fingers and our toes
Five years, twenty years, come back
It will always be the same, oh-oh, oh-oh

Chorus

I've got you, brother
I've got you, brother


                          D#
And if we hit on troubled water
                    Gm                F
I'll be the one to keep you warm and safe
                           D#
And we'll be carrying each other
                 Gm                F
Until we say goodbye on our dying day
                      D#
Because I've got you brother
     Dm       Gm
I've got you brother
     A#        D#
I've got you brother
     Dm       Gm
I've got you brother

Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I've got you, brother
I've got you, brother
