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
