Ab     Bbm
I knew you once
              Ab
When we were young
                     Bbm           Ab
And summer days were stll warm to the touch
Ebm                    Fm         Db
    And the skies were blue, when I was with you
    Ab
I called you brother once
                        Fm7
Our father's sons, the both of us

[Chorus]
       Bbm7
Now staring down each other's blades
     Eb7                       Eb  Ab    Fm7  Bbm7   Eb7
The rain washed words like brother away

[Verse 2]
Eb              Ab
I knew you once (I knew you once)
                      Eb
Not anymore (Not anymore)
             Ab          Bbm       Ab
And I can't say that I knew you before
Ebm              Fm
When storm clouds came, you came clean
Db                      Ab
With betrayal in your eyes
                                        Fm7
An ice wall built between us where my father died

[Chorus]
Bbm7
Staring down each others blades
        Eb7                     Eb Ab    Fm   Bbm7
The rain washed words like brother away

[Bridge]
Fm      Ab                Bb   Db    Dbm   Ab
Fool of me to not have seen between your lies
      Fm      Ab              Bb
And cruel of me to not have seen
        Db       Bbm  C   Db   Fm7
How it tore you up     inside

Fm   Bb7   Db   Dbm   Ab

[Verse 3]
                 Bbm              Ab
I knew you once when we were young
Bbm          Ab                 Bbm    Ab
Until that day you took that fantasy away from us
Eb          Fm     Ab   Bbm
Out of the blue I never knew you
    Db              Dbm
Oh Little brother, full of wiles
   Ab
Sharp of tongue and twisted smiles
Bbm7
staring down each other's blades
         Ebsus4       Ab          Fm7
The rain washed my brother away

[Otro]
Bbm7
Staring down each other's blades

the rain washed words like brother away
