Brother Down Tabs & Lyrics by Sam Roberts
Brother Down
guitar tabs lyrics
Intro Dm C G x2
Dm
One life to live but we're doing it wrong
C G
You see, got my brother down cause it's nothing to me
Dm
Everyone saying that it's wrong to cheat
C G
But there's no other way to get my life on easy street
Dm
Someone else telling you what you're living for
C G
Been knocking you down, now you're looking for more
Dm
The only sound you hear is a closing door
C G
Been looking for peace but they're bringing you war
Dm
Rich man cryin' cause his money's time
C G
And poor man's smilin' cause he knows he ain't blind
Dm
There's a man over there says he's tougher than me
C G
But I got eyes that can see through fantasy
(Chorus)
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
2nd Guitar plays this over Dm C G After the chorus

(Same as First half)
Take it all back cause it don't mean nothing
If you give it away and you're looking for something back
Wake up every morning when there's nothing there
No reason to die but no reason to care
Someone else telling you what you're living for
Been knocking you down now you're looking for more
The only sound you hear is a closing door
Been looking for peace but they're bringing you war
One life to live but we're doing it wrong
You see, got my brother down cause it's nothing to me
Rich man cryin' cause his money's time
And poor man's smilin' cause he knows he ain't blind
I think my life is passing me by
I think my life is passing me by
