Am                                  F
Having you around was like having a knife in my back pocket
C                                     G
We shed a lot of blood but that don’t count for much now does it
Am
You know your family wonders where you been
F
You kill them off like you kill everything
C
I was the only one who understands
G
No one’s gonna love you like I did

[Chorus]
C
Oh brother
         G
They say blood is thicker than water
            Am                   F
And I tried everything I know to learn to let you go

F Am G

[Verse 2]
Am
I got a bitterness
              F
'Cause what’s in you is in me too
C
We were dealt a bad hand
           G
But I made good with what you couldn’t do
Am
I met a girl and I settled down
F
And I found better things to care about
C                                      G                                 G Am C
How does the fucking family Christmas sound, Since I haven’t been around?
         F                                        G Am C
And I’ll give you the time of day while mum’s alive
         F                                   G Am C
But when she goes I can promise you so will I
      F                                              G Am C
And I hope you find your way, I hope you make it right
             F
And that the last thing that flashes in front of you, it makes you smile

[Chorus]
C
Oh brother
         G
They say blood is thicker than water
            Am                   F
And I tried everything I know to learn to let you go
C
Oh brother
         G
They say blood is thicker than water
            Am
And I tried everything I know
            F
But I don’t love you anymore

[Bridge]
F Am G C G Am

[Outro Chorus]
F Am G C G Am (Repeated during final chorus)

[Outro]
C
Oh brother
         G
They say blood is thicker than water
            Am
And I tried everything I know
            F
But I dont love you anymore (I don't love you anymore)
C
Oh brother
         G
They say blood is thicker than water
            Am
And I tried everything I know
            F
But I dont love you anymore (I don't love you anymore)
