From Silver Lake-Jackson Browne Original 1968 version as performed by Hedge and Donna [Intro] D G D G/A G/A D G Did you see our brother Asus4 A He was here the other day F#m Bm Em But he only came to say that he was leaving A D G Did you see his lady Asus4 A She was looking where he'd gone F#m Bm Em But she wasn't letting on that she was grieving A D She's bound to go G A D Perhaps she'll find him waiting for some boat in some city far away A G D/F# Em D She's bound to go
Asus4 D G Asus4 A Lately I remember afternoons of smoke and wine F#m Bm Em There was nothing we could find but peace and pleasure A D G And long ago he told me Asus4 A F#m Bm Em That he wanted just to be on his way across some sea no man can measure A D He won't be back, G A D And the sun may find him sleeping in the dust of some ruin far away A G D/F# Em D He won't be back G D Early today as I watched while the skyline was shaking Asus4 I heard a rumbling G D Early today the mechanical city was waking Asus4 And I ran out stumbling, mumbling Asus4 D A Out through the laughter of children and dogs Asus4 D G Asus4 A Do you know the man. F#m Bm Em Yes he lives upon the hill. F#m Bm Em And they say haunted voices fill his head with warnings. Asus D Asus Saying to a shadow, that the time is drawing near. F#m Em When the world must disappear, one of these mornings. A D Maybe he'll go. G A D G D G A Perhaps he'll take his shadow and be off to find his brother far away. A G D Maybe he'll go. G D Early today, as my friend the policeman was sneering. Asus I heard a rumbling. G D Early today as the men of my office were leering. Asus I ran out stumbling, mumbling, Asus4 D A Out through the laughter of children and dogs. A D G Did you see our brother Asus4 A He was here the other day F#m Bm Em But he only came to say that he can't breathe here A D Did you see his lady Asus4 A She was reaching for his hand F#m Bm Em Just as if to tell her man that she can't either A D They're bound to go G A D And the sun may find me running after them, seeing something far away A G D/F# Em D G D
