Oh, Brother!
Ton : GEnglish
Couplet
You've Dgot eyes like Jesus
But you Gspeak with a viper's tongue
DWe were just sitting around on earth
Where the Ghell did you come from?
With Dyour lady dressed in deerskin
And an Gamazing way about her
DWhen are you going to realize
That Emyou just can't live without her?
Refrain
Take it Deasy D4 D
Take it Emlight
But Gtake it....
Couplet
Your Dlady gets her powers
From the Ggoddess and the stars
DYou get yours from the trees and the brooks
And a Glittle from life on Mars
And DI've known you for a good long while
And would you Gkindly tell me mister
DHow in the name of the Father and the Son
Did I Emcome to be your sister?
Refrain
Take it Deasy D4 D
Take it Emlight
But Gtake it
Couplet
DYou've done dirt to lifelong friends
With Glittle or no excuses
DWho endowed you with the crown
To Ghand out these abuses?
DYour lady knows about these things
But Gthey don't put her under
DMe I know about them too
And I Emreact like thunder
Refrain
Take it Deasy D4 D
Take it Emlight
But Gtake it
Couplet
I Dknow you are surrounded
By Gparasites and sycophants
DWhen I come to see you
I dose Gup on coagulants
Because Dwhen you hurl that bowie knife
It's going to Gbe when my back is turned
DDoing some little deed for you
And Embaby will I get burned
Refrain
Take it Deasy D4 D
Take it Emlight
But take Git
Couplet
DSo little brother when you come
G /f# Em D
To knock on my door
I Ddon't want to bring you down
But I Gjust went through the floor
My Dlove for you extends through life
And I Gdon't want to waste it
But Dhoney what you've been dishing out
You'd Gnever want to taste it
DAnd if I had the nerve
To either Grisk it or to break it
I'd Dput our friendship on the line
And Emshow you how to take it
Refrain
D...Easy D4 D
Em...Light
But to Gtake it
