G               D/F#              Em     Em7
   We were like brothers, lives entwined
            C         G/B
   Kids who grew up together
            Am                C              Dsus4  D
   Dreaming of the world we’d get to see one time
G            D/F#                  Em  Em7
   I found a girl and you bought a car
                    C          G/B       Am
   Seemed like that summer was over in a minute
              C              Dsus4  D
   Now it’s a fading wedding card


       Em   D/F# G       Am      G/B    C
And so life goes on when child - hood’s gone
    Em    D/F#  G       C         Dsus4  D
The times we’ve had, no words can say
            Em     D/F# G        Am  G/B  C
And all the things  we  do won’t fade a - way
       Em       D/F#   G            C     Dsus4  D
A real friend’s like a shelter on a rainy day


G            D/F#              Em   Em7
   Tear of a widow, a hermit’s plea
                C     G/B
   Swords of an Angel King
             Am               C                 Dsus4  D
   We got to see the world in flames before the calm
G                 D/F#                  Em   Em7
   Fought like an eagle, waited for the dove
               C           G/B              Am
   We were the best, never knew there was a limit
               C               Dsus4  D
   But now all hell has broken loose


     C  Em   Gm    Dm

     D  F#m  Bsus4  B
     D  F#m  Bsus4  B
                   (Need you to...)


   Em   D/F# G      Am    G/B C
...give  my  son my pur - ple heart
         Em   D/F# G          C        Dsus4  D
Brother, leave me, run, don’t close my eyes
   Em   D/F# G               Am  G/B C
My last save point’s getting out of  reach
   Em   D/F# G            C    Dsus4  D
My game  is  over, let me fade away
             Em   D/F# G             Am    G/B C
And will you tell  my  son ’bout the pur - ple heart
            Em    D/F# G        C         Dsus4  D
And what it means  to  have him keep it today
            Em    D/F# G            Am    G/B  C
And that he knows  I   smile in the clouds a - bove
        Em  D/F# G                C      Dsus4  D  C
