Older Brother by Pepper Rabbit
Older Brother
The song just follows this chord pattern throughout the song:
F - Dm - Am - C
we both sat on our beds in our rooms
and we talked about what was coming soon
all that pink powder won't cover up what we did
doing wrong when we were just kids
and i think that you're the older brother that i never had
I wish i could reach out and touch you, don't worry i'm not sad
I know you're just where you want to be, and everyone's a hundred grand
save some space for me and say hello to your dad
I will look after your sister, i swear
I'll write her when she's lonely and send it off in the air
I will keep her safe until i'm dead
She'll always have a place to rest her head
you don't have to worry about it now, you don't have to live with that frown
I will hold your memory close to my chest, no i wish you hadn't said he was best
could you have stayed just one more night, for all of us to say goodbye
but all of your troubles are now gone, and you still feel so dang warm
