                             BROTHER - GERARD WAY 
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||

This is my best shot at the chords (mainly played by the piano). You don't have to play the 
slashes if you don't want to. Enjoy! 

~~~~~~

[Intro]

D D/C# Bm Bm/A G G/A 
G G/A G/A# Bm Bm/A G G/A 
G G/A A/C# A 
(this makes sense if you play along with the song)


[Verse]
D                            D/C#     Bm
Does anyone have the time to bring me down?
    Bm/A  G    G/A  G     A           A/A#              Bm
And can I sleep all night long to the drums of the city rain?
     Bm/A     G      
Just make it up-
G                 G/A   A           A/C#             D
Cuz I'm awake all night long to the drums of the city rain 


D                                     D/C#    Bm
And brother if you have the chance to pick me up?
    Bm/A  G    G/A G    A            A/A#                  Bm
And can I sleep on your couch to the pound of the ache and pain?
Bm/A  G                   G/A G     A           A/C#             D
In my head- cuz I'm awake all night long to the drums of the city rain


[Chorus]
    D          D/C#
The lights we chase
    Bm          Bm/A
The nights we steal
    G           G/A G       A
The things that we take- to make us feel this
  D          D/C#
I can't go back
      Bm        Bm/A
Don't think I will
        G                               A
I won't sleep tonight as long as I still-
                           D
Hear the drums of the city rain


[Verse 2]
D                            D/C#    Bm
Does anyone have the guts to shut me up?
  Bm/A  G          G/A    A 
Cuz I believe, that every night
           A/A#              Bm
There's a chance we can walk away
  Bm/A     G 
So hold on tight-
        G/A G            A                         Bm
Because I won't wait too long, in the drums of the beating rain


[Bridge]

D
Cuz the nights don't last

And we leave alone
Bm
Will you drive me back?
A
Can you take me home?


[Chorus]
    D          D/C#
The lights we chase
    Bm          Bm/A
The nights we steal
    G           G/A G       A       A/A#
The things that we take- to make us feel this
  D          D/C#
I can't go back
      Bm        Bm/A
Don't think I will
        G                               A
I won't sleep tonight as long as I still-
                           D
Hear the drums of the city rain



[Bridge 2]
Bm            Bbaug
Faces I don't know
                  D
I am tired in the glow
                Bb
Of the freezing club
                  D                          Bb      
Keep me breathing don't make the lights come back
                D 
Can you take me home?
                 Bb            D
We all need this when we leave alone


[Verse 3]
D                             D/C#        Bm
Remember when you and I would make things up?
   Bm/A G            G/A     A           A/A#                   Bm
So many nights, just take me down to the place we would hear them play
  Bm/A      G 
I miss that sound
                 G/A G   A 
Cuz now we don't sing so loud
       A/C#              D
To the drums of the city rain


[Chorus]
    D          D/C#
The lights we chase
    Bm          Bm/A
The nights we steal
    G           G/A G       A
The things that we take- to make us feel this
  D          D/C#
I can't go back
      Bm        Bm/A
Don't think I will
        G                               A
I won't sleep tonight as long as I still-
                           D
Hear the drums of the city rain

     D              D/C#       Bm        Bm/A
Like strangers laugh and like subways feel
G                    
Things I'm trying to break
         A                  D           D/C# Bm   Bm/A
Oh, just wait until this is all we have- to keep us ill
        G                            A                                D
I won't breathe tonight as long as I still hear the drums of the city rain
