Brother
by Morten Harket/Peter Kvint (2013)
Original Key: G#m
This is tabbed after the acoustic version as performed on Swedish TV Show Skavlan. If 
you look closely at the youtube clip you find that Peter Kvint uses his own tuning, but I 
think standard tuning would do fine for strumming. Should be fine for the band version, too.
Intro:
G#m E B F# G#m E
G#mYou are still my EbrotBher
G#mTill the end of Etime
F#You and I we G#mlost our Eway
