Blood Brothers

        G              Cadd9       Em         D
We were just ten years old when we bonded for life
        G           Cadd9              Em        D
In that Maple tree, you and me, and my old timer knife
             G             Cadd9          Em           D
The trade we made with the blade sealed a deal like no others
         G         Cadd9          Em       N.C.
Yeah, it hurt like hell but not a teardrop fell

[Chorus]
              G     Cadd9
We were blood brothers
                 Em                 D
Same soul with a different shade of skin
         G            Cadd9
Blood is thicker than water
                     Am                        D
We were thick as thieves through the thick and thin
        G       Cadd9         Am           D
Growing up in a world calling us different colors
           G                   Cadd9
But it was more than black and white
          Em            D            G     Cadd9  Em  D
Wish everyone would act like blood brothers

[Verse 2]
                  G            Cadd9     Em                D
Remember when you busted up my lip and I dotted your right eye?
             G            Cadd9                 Em                  D
I liked your sister, so I kissed her behind the bleachers in junior high
             G       Cadd9         Em           D
Man you were red hot mad, we got suspended from school
                 G           Cadd9           Em        D
And we spend the rest of the day fishing our problems away

[Chorus]
              G     Cadd9
We were blood brothers
                 Em                 D
Same soul with a different shade of skin
         G            Cadd9
Blood is thicker than water
                     Am                        D
We were thick as thieves through the thick and thin
        G       Cadd9         Am           D
Growing up in a world calling us different colors
           G                   Cadd9
But it was more than black and white
          Em            D            G     Cadd9  Em  D
Wish everyone would act like blood brothers
         G     Cadd9  Em  D
Blood brothers

[Bridge]
        Em            Cadd9               G       D
When we learn to look through His eyes in heaven above
               Em           Cadd9                     G             D
We'll see with all hate and heartache there's nothing stronger than love
        Em            Cadd9               G       D
When we learn to look through His eyes in heaven above
               Em           Cadd9                     G             D
We'll see with all hate and heartache there's nothing stronger than love

[Chorus]
N.C.          G     Cadd9
We were blood brothers
                 Em                 D
Same soul with a different shade of skin
         G            Cadd9
Blood is thicker than water
                     Am                        D
We were thick as thieves through the thick and thin
        G       Cadd9         Am           D
Growing up in a world calling us different colors
           G                   Cadd9
But it was more than black and white
          Em            D            G     Cadd9
Wish everyone would act like blood brothers
                 Em                 D
Same soul with a different shade of skin
         G            Cadd9
Blood is thicker than water
                     Am                        D
We were thick as thieves through the thick and thin
        G       Cadd9         Am           D
Growing up in a world calling us different colors
           G               Cadd9
But it was more than black and white
          Em            D            G     Cadd9  Em  D
Wish everyone would act like blood brothers
         G    Cadd9  Em  D
Blood brothers
         G    Cadd9  Em  D
Blood brothers
