BROTHER'S KEEPER
by: Rich Mullins

E  A  D2  E  A  D2  E  A  D2  E  A  D2

          E              A           D2
Now the plummer's got a drip in his spicket
        E             A           D2
The mechanics got a clank in his car
          E                   A                B7
And the preacher's thinking thoughts that are wicked
         C#m           A      B7
And the lover's got a lonely heart
D2                                     
My friends aren't the way I wish they were
B7
They
 are just the way they are

E              D        A
I will be my brother's keeper
F#m              B7
Not the one who judges him
E                    D       A
I won't despise him for his weakness
F#m                B7
I won't regard him for his strength
D              A
I won't take away freedom
F#m              B7
I will help him learn to stand
E                  D       A        F#m   E  A  D   E  A  D
And I will, I will be my brother's keeper

          E              A             
D2
Now this roof has got a few missing shingles
        E               A        D2
But at least we got ourselves a roof
          E                A       B7
And they say that she's a fallen angel
C#m                A                   B7
I wonder if she recalls when she last flew
D2
There's no point in pointing fingers
B7
Unless your pointing to the truth
