How can I get a copy of my father’s Will?

My father died in another state where he lived. My brother has the Will but won’t give me a copy; he is not going to give me anything my father left. Is it possible to get a copy of his Will so I can see if I was left anything? My brother said it was a simple Will and my father didn’t specify if anyone was to be left anything specific of his personal belongings.
