Brothers Under The Bridge Ukulele chords by Bruce Springsteen

Intro: C

 C
Saigon, it was all gone

      F
The same Coke machines

           C
As the streets I grew on

Down in a mesquite canyon
We come walking along the ridge
              F        Am     G           C
Me and the brothers under the bridge

    C
Campsite's an hour's walk from the nearest road to town

                            F
Up here there's too much brush and canyon

                      C
For the CHP choppers to touch down

Ain't lookin' for nothin', just wanna live
               F       Am     G          C
Me and the brothers under the bridge

   C
Come the Santa Ana's, man, that dry brush'll light

         F
Billy Devon got burned up in his own campfire one winter night

      C
We buried his body in the white stone high up along the ridge

               F       Am     G          C
Me and the brothers under the bridge

       Am                        F
Had enough of town and the street life

         C                               G
Over nothing you end up on the wrong end of someone's knife

              C
Now I don't want no trouble

And I ain't got none to give
               F       Am     G          C
Me and the brothers under the bridge

     C
I come home in '72

                    F
You were just a beautiul light

                       C
In your mama's dark eyes of blue

I stood down on the tarmac, I was just a kid
               F       Am     G         C
Me and the brothers under the bridge

         C
Come Veterans' Day I sat in the stands in my dress blues

                F
I held your mother's hand

                                  C
When they passed with the red, white and blue

One minute your'e out there
And something slips

Outro: F Am G C
