Brother John Lyrics

| | | | | 1st fret
I usually play it with a capo on 1, but it sounds fine without.
VERSE ONE
Turn around for something better
Children, give up, don't you ever
Remember that the devil's clever
Mmm-hmmm
Brother John, where are you, why are you sleeping?
Brother John, why are you, where are you sleeping?
VERSE TWO
Take the light into your room
Cast a candle on your doom
Your master he is coming home soon
Mmm-hmmm
Brother John, how are you, why are you sleeping?
Brother John, why are you, why are you sleeping?
May your awakening be near
Heaven could be any place
Why not here?
Why not here?
Why not here?
Why not here?
Brother John, how are you, how are you sleeping? (x3)
Brother John, how are you, why are you sleeping?
