 hill       and we were            Now there's
             women and men          so much that


 D MajorD                             B minorBm
 time  time and memory fade away  we got our own roads to ride
 A augmentedA          D MajorD
 and chances we gotta take

         G+G                D MajorD
 We stood side by side  each one fightin' for the other
         B minorBm        A augmentedA    D MajorD
 We said until we died we'd always be blood brothers

2.            D MajorD
 Now the hardness of this world  slowly grinds your dreams away
         B minorBm   A augmentedA            D MajorD
 Makin' a fool's joke  out of the promises we make
                D MajorD
 And what once seemed black and white  turns to so many shades of gray
               B minorBm  A augmentedA
 We lose ourselves in work to do   work to do and bills to pay

           G+G              D MajorD
 And it's a ride ride ride  and there ain't much cover
               B minorBm  A augmentedA      D MajorD
 With no-one runnin' by your side  my blood brother

 (harmonica break with verse chords)
               G+G                 D MajorD
 On through the houses of the dead  past those fallen on their tracks
        G+G             A augmentedA
 Always movin' ahead  and never lookin' back

3.
(A augmentedA)           D MajorD  (etc. like the other verses)
 Now I don't know how I feel  I don't know how I feel tonight
 If I've fallen 'neath the wheel, if I've lost or gained sight
 I don't even know why, I don't know why I made this call
 Or if any of this matters anymore after all

 But the stars are burnin' bright like some mystery uncovered
 I'll keep movin' through the dark with you in my heart
 My blood brother
