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 relive 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 you'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'll go deeper than the ink beneath the skin of our tattoos

Though 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

5 years 20 years come back

It will 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

Because 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

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I've got you brother

I've got you brother
