Older Brother


Tabbed by: Alessandra Gage I noticed that the only other guitar tabs for this song on this website didn't have the proper chord changes for the chorus, so I thought I'd add my contribution (All chords were sounded out by ear): Chords for Verses: F - Dm - Am - C Chords for Chorus: B - F - Dm - C Verse 1: (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) We both sat on our beds in the room, (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) And we talked about what was coming soon. (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) All that pink powder won't cover up what we did, (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) Doing wrong when we were just kids. Chorus 1: (B) (F) (Dm) (C) And I think that you're the older brother that I never had. (B) (F) (Dm) (C) I wish I could reach out and touch you, don't worry I'm not sad. (B) (F) (Dm) (C) I know you're just where you want to be, and everyone's a hundred grand. (B) (F) (Dm) (C) Save some space for me, and say hello to your dad. Verse 2: (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) I will look after your sister, I swear. (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) I'll write her when she's lonely and send it off in the air. (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) I will keep her safe until I'm dead. (F) (Dm) (Am) (C) She'll always have a place to rest her head. Chorus 2: (B) (F) (Dm) (C) You don't have to worry about it now, you don't have to live with that frown (B) (F) (Dm) I will hold your memory close to my chest, though I wish you hadn't said it (C) was best. (B) (F) (Dm) (C) Couldn't you have stayed just one more night, for all of us to say goodbye? (B) (F) (Dm) (C) But all of your troubles are now gone, and you still feel so damn warm. [Repeat chord progression for verse 1 twice, then end on F chord.]
