Verse 1
(G major) (C major) (G major) Well,
he had shut the meter down
and I suggested we (C major) leave him a
little bit more money,
just a little more.
An Indian cab driver
(G major) who had been (D major) waiting patiently to get
our belongings out of his vehicle. (G major)
But Brother John said,
a little more becomes a little more, (C major)
and a little more becomes a hand down.
And (D major) everyone you see will have (G major) their hand (D major) s out a little more for you and me,
(G major) can't you see?
That's where this thing is going.
He (C major) said, oh (G major) little brother,
oh (C major) little brother. (G major) (D major) (G major)
I said, John, I don't see it that way,
he did a little extra work, deserves extra pay,
(C major) I'm going to give it to him anyway,
and I reached for a fiber
and I was (D major) about to give it to the taxi driver,
but Brother Barry snatched
it from (G major) my hand
and said, thank you man,
let's I keep this in the family,
it's an old little brother
Old (C major) little brother (G major)
You have got (D major) so much (G major) to learn
Here go, y 'all (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(C major)
(G major) (D major) (G major)
I said, Barry, it is you.
I thought you were in
Montserrat or Okinawa.
He said, (C major) out of the blue
and madness has descended upon you,
(D major) I'm here in your spirit
whenever you need me.
Cause that's what broth (G major) ers are for,
and I'm the eldest,
so you better believe me.
said, oh little brother, oh (C major) little brother,
you (G major) have got (D major) so much to learn. (G major) (C major)
(G major) Break it down boys,
now the things I've been talking about
are just things from a dream
John (C major) is as generous as they come,
and Barry, well he's the king
(D major) Thinking about other folks,
not just himself,
don't mean a thing (G major) here
And this song, they're the same yonkers
boys from the old grassy sprain
I said, oh little brother,
oh (C major) little brother
Oh, brother,
you (G major) have got so (D major) much to learn.
(G major) Break it down again, boy.
Now, I said to myself,
it's time you turn your back on the boys.
Turn the (C major) other way.
You've been here before.
And if you decide to stay, it is (G major) just you
(D major) and you alone can make the obvious,
the unknown.
You are a (G major) boy, boy,
and your color's been born.
Oh little brother, oh (C major) little brother,
you (G major) have got (D major) so much to learn, (G major) y 'all. (C major) (G major)
Oh little brother. (C major) (G major) (D major) (C major) (G major)
Oh little brother, oh little brother
Oh (C major) little brother (G major)
You have got so (D major) much, so much to learn (G major) you
