I play this straight on electric, but I capo 2 on acoustic.
This is how I picked it out and set it up for our youth worship team.
BROTHER ? GAVIN DEGRAW
B     C#m - G#m     C#m - B     C#m - G#m
C#m-B                     C#m     G#m                                   
    Ramblers in the wilderness We can?t find what we need
C#m          B                            C#m         G#m
Get a little restless from the searching, get a little worn down in between
E       B                    C#m        G#m
 Like a bull chasing the matador is the man left to his own schemes
E         B                       C#m              G#m
Everybody needs someone beside them shining like a lighthouse from the sea

E                           B                                 G#m               
     Brother let me be your shelter I?ll never leave you all alone
                          F#
I can be the one you call, when you?re low
E                         B                                         G#m 
   Brother let me be your fortress when the night winds are driving on
                                    F# (HOLD 8 COUNTS)
Be the one to light the way, bring you home

B                                   C#m - G#m                                   
Face down in the desert now there?s a cage locked around my heart
                   E-B                                  
I found a way to drop the keys where my failures were
C#m - G#m
       now my hands can?t reach that far
E-B                                C#m - G#m
     I ain?t made for a rivalry I could never take the world alone
                          E-B                              C#m - G#m
I know that in my weakness I am strong, but it?s your love that brings me home

E                               B                             G#m               
     Brother let me be your shelter I?ll never leave you all alone
                          F#
     I can be the one you call, when you?re low
E                         B                                        G#m  
   Brother let me be your fortress when the night winds are driving on
                        F# (4 counts, straight to bridge)
Be the one to light the way, bring you home

Bridge
E                  B                G#m
      And when you call and need me near
                      F#                                
Saying  where?d you go? Brother I?m right here
E              B                          G#m
  And on those days when the sky begins to fall
                             F#
You?re the blood of my blood, we can get through it all
B (HOLD 8 COUNTS)
(soft touch here, acapella)

E                             B                                       G#m       
      Brother let me be your fortress when the night winds are driving on
                        F# 
Be the one to light the way, bring you home
(all in)
E                           B                                  G#m              
     Brother let me be your shelter I?ll never leave you all alone
                     F#
I can be the one you call, when you?re low
E                         B                                        G#m  
   Brother let me be your fortress when the night winds are driving on
                        F# 
Be the one to light the way, bring you home
