No capo
when the guitar comes in: G  G  F  C x4
GI never had a brFother, old frCiend you had tGhree.
You always said that if you had aFnother one iCt would be Gme.
When you come through the flFames, not everCything will sGurvive;
Forget about faFmily now, we've Cgot our old fEmlyers,
Bad tatDtoos,
The in-jokes and memCories,
The misspent yoDuth.
And yeah we ran oEmut of miles,
I guess that's tDrue,
But I know I'll see you when I see yGou.
repeat intro x2
GI had a nFew guitar, yCou had a dGrum kit,
And I knew the chFords to "SmCells Like Teen SpiGrit".
Long summer aFfternoons waCshed out in the hGaze
I'll come round to your pFlace, your foClks are aEmway
For a whDile,
So let's plCay
Till we're tiDred,
And then hEmey,
It's “GooDdbye”, 
But I know I'll see you when I see yGou.
F   Cm   G C  Cm
GThis isn't where it Cmends;
The world will keep on tuGrning,
We'll alCl make more misCmtakes, we'll all have time to make ameGnds.
We'll carry different loCmads,
We'll all get different blGisters,
                        C                       Cm               FG-once
Even so you know we'll miss them when we're finally out of road.
SOLO
GTime it will chFange us but dCon't you foGrget:
You are the oFnly broCther I've Ggot. x5
THE LAST TIME:
GTime it will chFange us but dCon't you foGrget:
             F-once              
You are the only brother I've got.

No capo

when the guitar comes in: G G F C x4

G F C G

I never had a brother, old friend you had three.

F C G

You always said that if you had another one it would be me.

F C G

When you come through the flames, not everything will survive;

F C Em

Forget about family now, we've got our old flyers,

Bad tattoos,

The in-jokes and memories,

The misspent youth.

And yeah we ran out of miles,

I guess that's true,

But I know I'll see you when I see you.

repeat intro x2

G F C G

I had a new guitar, you had a drum kit,

F C G

And I knew the chords to "Smells Like Teen Spirit".

F C G

Long summer afternoons washed out in the haze

F C Em

I'll come round to your place, your folks are away

For a while,

So let's play

Till we're tired,

And then hey,

It's “Goodbye”,

But I know I'll see you when I see you.

This isn't where it ends;

The world will keep on turning,

We'll all make more mistakes, we'll all have time to make amends.

We'll carry different loads,

We'll all get different blisters,

C Cm F

G-once

Even so you know we'll miss them when we're finally out of road.
