G Em G D C G



🎸 Verse 1:
  Em     C
Oh brother of mine
   G        C
It’s been a long long time
   Em      G      D
Since I’ve seen my face in your eyes
  Em       C
Oh brother
I’ve returned
   G       C
To my burn scars of birth
  Em    G       D
Charcoal and iron brought me back

🎸 Chorus:
   G
And I left you alone
   Em      G
In a house, not a home
   Em         G
And I watched the burning grow
   A        D
As my hair filled with gray
   G
From the ashes that fell
       Em    G
The mountains I knew so well
      C                D
Burned with Hellfire in the blue light of midnight
      C      G  C/G
Brother
I watched the sky burn
  Em  C
And all I learned was
C        Am      Em
Smoke fills the lungs like a disease

🎸 Verse 2:
  Em     C
Oh brother
I see
  G     C
You burn like me
  Em      G      Esus4
The singes on our skin like a brand
  Em      C
Oh brother
I confess
     C      G
There is little of me left
   Em         G       D
That could care about dousing the wildfire

🎸 Chorus:
 G
And I left you alone
   Em      G
In a house, not a home
   Em         G
And I watched the burning grow
   A        D
As my hair filled with gray
   G
From the ashes that fell
       Em    G
The mountains I knew so well
      C                D
Burned with Hellfire in the blue light of midnight
      C      G  C/G
Brother
I watched the sky burn
  Em  C
And all I learned was
C        Am      Em
Smoke fills the lungs like a disease

🎸 Verse 3:
  Em       C
Oh brother, did you know
     G       C
You could just strike a match
   Em      G       D
Hear him scream my name one last time
  Em      C
Oh brother
I am home
    G      Em
In the fires of our youth
       Em     C      D
I could care less if it hurts you anymore

🎸 Chorus:
 G
And I left you alone
   Em      G
In a house, not a home
   Em         G
And I watched the burning grow
   A        D
As my hair filled with gray
   G
From the ashes that fell
       Em    G
The mountains I knew so well
      C                D
Burned with Hellfire in the blue light of midnight
      C      G  D
Brother
I watched the sky burn
  Em  C
And all I learned was
Em        Am      Em
Smoke fills the lungs like a disease
