D
We played king of the mountain  out on the end
                               Bm   A
The world come charging up the hill,
                       D
and we were women and men

Now there's so much that time,
time and memory fade away
We got our own roads to ride
and chances we gotta take

                  G
We stood side by side each one fighting for the
D
other
                  Bm                  A     D
We said until we died wed always be blood brothers

Now the hardness of this world slowly grinds
your dreams away
Makin' a fool's joke out of the promises we make
And what once seemed black and white turns
to so many shades of gray
We lose ourselves in work to do, work to do
and bills to pay
And it's a ride, ride, ride, and there
ain't much cover
With no one runnin' by your side, my blood brother

On through the houses of the dead past
those fallen in their tracks
Always movin' ahead and never lookin' back

Now I don't know how I feel,
I don't know how I feel tonight
If I've fallen 'neath the wheel,
if I've lost or I've gained sight
I don't even know why,
I don't know why I made this call
Or if any of this matters anymore after all
But the stars are burnin' bright
like some mystery uncovered
I'll keep movin' through the dark
with you in my heart, my blood brother
