when we were young

we were the ones the kings and

queens oh yeah we ruled the world

we smoked cigarettes man no regrets

wish i could re live every single word

we've taken different paths

and travelled different roads

i know we'll always end up on

the same one when we're old

and when we're in the trenches and

you're under fire i will cover you

if i was dying on my knees

you would be the one to rescue me

and if you were drowned at sea

i'd give you my lungs

so you could breathe

i've got you brother

i've got you brother

i've got you brother

i've got you brother

oh brother we go deeper than the

ink beneath the skin of our tattoos

no we don't share the same blood

you're my brother and i

love you that's the truth

we're living different

lives heaven only knows

if we'll make it back with

all our fingers and our toes

five years twenty years come

back we'll always be the same

if i was dying on my knees

you would be the one to rescue me

and if you were drowned at sea

i'd give you my lungs

so you could breathe

i've got you brother

i've got you brother

and if we hit on troubled water

i'll be the one to keep you

warm and safe

and we'll be carrying each other

until we say goodbye on our dying day

i've got you brother

i've got you brother

i've got you brother

i've got you brother

if i was dying on my knees

you would be the one to rescue me

and if you were drowned at sea

i'd give you my lungs

so you could breathe

if i was dying on my knees

you would be the one to rescue me

and if you were drowned at sea

i'd give you my lungs

so you can breath

i've got you brother

i've got you brother
