Oh Brother

Bm
No man is a hero every day
G
and even a champion loses the day 
before the race
Em
try not to be sleeping in your wide 
awake
Bm                                
and when your chance comes have 
  A6
fun don't be afraid

Chorus:
D
Oh brother all you got to know is 
who you are and it will be
Bm
all right, all right
D
oh brother, once you realize that 
you're a star you're gonna
Bm
shine so bright

Verse2:
Bm
And you don't always have to want to
 play
G
and you won't always have to be 
willing to pay
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
Em
try to make sure to make more love 
than hate
Bm                                
and when your chance comes stand 
  A6
up do what you say



Verse3: This one's different.  It 
can be played like any other verse 
and it'll sound
fine.  If anyone wants to tab this 
bit for me, do so.  In the mean 
time, I've provided a
very playable version here based off
 live performances.  The first chord
 seems to differ
depending on the mood of the song so
 I've provided a few suggestions for
 you to play around
with for your cover.

(Bm7 or Bm or D)      G
It won't always be easy along the 
way
D             G      Bm         
and you won't always believe me 
        D
when I say
G                         Em
you don't need anything but life and
 faith
            Bm       Bm7
and you can always call out my name

Chorus:
           D
Just got to shine on, shine on, 
shine on, shine on, shine on
Bm
little brother,
           D
Just got to shine on, shine on, 
shine on, shine on
Bm
my little brother

Bridge:
E                            G   
Can we just get some of that good
          D
 old time JT right here now baby 
well
Em             E              A7
you know some old time JT old time 
you know, you know, you know


One last thing, when playing the 
intro/verses the bass line is 
something like this for
the first change.

B|---3--------------3----------| 
G|---4--------------0----------| 
D|---4-------------------------| 
A|-2----4-5-4-2-0--------------|
