Brother – Peter Katz and Royal Wood transcribed by Andrew Bown 17 April 2014 Notes: - Anything in () brackets is an instruction, not lyrics - |---/---/---/--- is for chord timing. | = start of measure, / = beats 2,3,4 - Lyric placement is intentional; approximately where the words fit to the music - All C and F chords are C/G and F/C respectively. - All C/B and Am/B are bass note steps from C to Am and Am to C. - Strum pattern is mostly downward strums, but improvise on the refrain sections a bit. - Strum rhythm is 12312312 (put emphasis on number 1) most of the time. (speak the numbers twice as fast as you tap your foot to the music to get the feel). - Bridge is different (arpeggiated sort of) – check the recording. - Add a tambourine hit on beat 4 most of the way through the song for authenticity Intro: (palm muted) C Csus2 C Csus2 C Csus2 C C/B |---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/--- Verse 1: (all partial palm muted) Am Am/B C F C C/B |---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/--- I caught a vision of you looking in the mirror Am Am/B C F C C/B |---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/--- A picture I had seen before me all these years Am Am/B C F C C/B |---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/--- I’d always wanted me to follow where you walked Am Am/B C F C C/B |---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/--- To be the image of this brother I had watched Verse 2: (same as verse 1) Well I know dear brother that the sand it falls away Into the hour glass with every passing day We chose our own roads but no matter what the cost Am Am/B C F C |---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/---|---/---/---/--- I stand before you saying no, nothing was lost.
