Capo on 1st fret to fit with recording.



    DThe (xx0232@1)house was like a tomb.
      DI (xx0232@1)was hiding in my room.
      G (320003@1)   	          	    DAs (xx0232@1)my brother made his way on down the hall.
         DI (xx0232@1)didn't want to say goodbye.
     	 D (xx0232@1)    	                   GAnd (320003@1)I was trying to deny there was a war,
     	           DAnd (xx0232@1)that he got the call.
  BmI (x24432@1)watched him from my window
        GWalking (320003@1)down the drive.
       DThen (xx0232@1)I ran down the stairway
     	   AThrough (x02220@1)the front door and I cried



DYou (xx0232@1)come back you hear?
      GAnd (320003@1)I let him see my tears
       D (xx0232@1)   	                   AI (x02220@1)said I'll give you my rookie of DiMaggio.
        DI'll (xx0232@1)do anything you want,
           GClean (320003@1)your room, or wash your car.
        D (xx0232@1)         Asus4 (x02230@1)          GI'll (320003@1)do anything so long as you don't go.
            D (xx0232@1)           Asus4 (x02230@1)     DBut (xx0232@1)he said, this is what brothers are for.


 
     DWell (xx0232@1)I have my heroes,
        DBut (xx0232@1)the one I love the most
G (320003@1)     	                 DTaught (xx0232@1)me how to hunt and swing a bat.
      DAnd (xx0232@1)I wrote him every night,
         DI (xx0232@1)said I miss our pillow fights,
    G (320003@1)                           DBut (xx0232@1)lately I just wonder where you're at.
Bm (x24432@1)                      GSometimes (320003@1)freedom makes it hard to live.
     D (xx0232@1)                                     A (x02220@1)  
When it takes things from you that you don't want to give.



       DI (xx0232@1)said you come back you hear?
  GI (320003@1)miss you being near.
D (xx0232@1)                               ALaugh (x02220@1)and fish down in the maple grove
        DI'll (xx0232@1)do anything you want.
              GThere (320003@1)must be someone I can call,
         D (xx0232@1)              Asus4 (x02230@1)          GAnd (320003@1)just maybe they would let you come back home.
             D (xx0232@1)           Asus4 (x02230@1)     DBut (xx0232@1)he wrote, this is what brothers are for.



A (x02220@1)   	                    G (320003@1)            DI (xx0232@1)may never have to face the anger of those guns,
A (x02220@1)             G (320003@1)           DOr (xx0232@1)lie cold and wounded in my blood,
A (x02220@1)     	   G (320003@1)           DOr (xx0232@1)know the sacrifice and what it must of cost
Bm (x24432@1)       G (320003@1)         A (x02220@1)         	          
For him to love me that much.



DWell, (xx0232@1)it had been two years,
      DAnd (xx0232@1)I held back my tears
       G (320003@1)  	          	      DWhen (xx0232@1)I saw him in that wheel chair on the shore.
         DAnd (xx0232@1)as I ran and held him tight,
               DThat's (xx0232@1)when he looked me in the eye
             Bm (x24432@1)           Asus4 (x02230@1)         GAnd (320003@1)said I'm sorry that you have to push me home.
     	      D (xx0232@1) 	  Asus4 (x02230@1)     DAnd (xx0232@1)I said hey, this is what brothers are for.
