[Intro]
Am
 
 
[Verse 1]
Am
On the highway
Am
On the freeway
G
In the airport
G
In the airplane
G
In the airtrain
G
In Brooklyn U.S.A
E
To a Tinsel Town
E
Where now
E
What the Dodgers play
               Am
And where they fired it
Am
Where they tried it
Am
Where they doubled it
E
Where they tripled it
E
Where they flippin' it
              G
And where the car's parked
                      E
Where the girls dance naked
E
Where they know when you're fakin' it
 
 
[Verse 2]
Am
And where the rubber meets the road yea
E
Where the hot meets the cold
E
Poor meet the soul
          G
Where the young meet the old
G
Truth be told
E
I got somethin' on my mind
E
Y'all gotta know
 
 
[Chorus]
        Am
I got a brother named Lee
                 E7
Look just like me
E7
He gotta lotta enemies
      G
Got a brother named Lee
                 E7
Look just like me
E7
Both sides of the Mississippi 
        Am
I got a brother named Lee
                 E7
Look just like me
E7
He gotta lotta enemies
      G
Got a brother named Lee
                 E7
Look just like me
E7
Both sides of the Mississippi

   G
In Brooklyn U.S.A
       E
To the Tinsel Town
E
Where now
E
What the Dodgers play
                 Am
And when they're searchin' for something
Am
That you will never find
          E
When they lookin' at her and say 'so fine'
          G
When they keep saying it was suicide
          E
When they never seen that look in her father's eye
          Am
Where the rubber meet the road
                       E
Where the hot meet the cold
E
The spirit meet the soul
                   G
The young meet the old
G
I say truth be told
      E
I got somethin' on my mind
Y'all gotta know
 
 
[Chorus]
        Am
I got a brother named Lee
                 E
Look just like me
E
He gotta lotta enemies
      G
Got a brother named Lee
                  E
Looks just like me
E
Both sides of the Mississippi 
        Am
I got a brother named Lee
                 E
Look just like me
E
He gotta lotta enemies
      G
Got a brother named Lee
                  E
Looks just like me
E
Both sides of the Mississippi
