🎶 Family line

Capo: 4



-Verse 1-
My [A#m]father never talked a [Cb]lot
He just [Db]took a walk around the block
'Til all his [A#m]anger took a hold of [Cb]him
And then he'd [Db]hit
My [A#m]mother never cried a [Cb]lot
She took the [Db]punches, but she never fought
'Til she said, "I'm [A#m]leaving and I'll take the [Cb]kids"
So she [Db]did

-Pre-Chorus-
I say, "They're [A#m]just the ones who [Cb]gave me [Db]life"
But I [A#m]truly am my [Cb]parents' [Db]child

-Chorus-
Scattered '[A#m]cross my family [Cb]line
I'm so [Db]good at telling lies
That came [A#m]from my mother's [Cb]side
Told a [Db]million to survive
Scattered '[A#m]cross my family [Cb]line
God, I [Db]have my father's eyes
But my [A#m]sister's when I [Cb]cry
I can [Db]run, but I can't hide
From my [A#m]family [Cb]line [Db]

-Verse 2-
It's [A#m]hard to put it into [Cb]words
How the [Db]holidays will always hurt
I watch the [A#m]fathers with their little [Cb]girls
And wonder [Db]what I did to deserve this
How [A#m]could you hurt a [Cb]little kid?
I [Db]can't forget, I can't forgive you
'Cause [A#m]now I'm scared that [Cb]everyone I love will [Db]leave me

-Chorus-
Scattered '[A#m]cross my family [Cb]line
I'm so [Db]good at telling lies
That came [A#m]from my mother's [Cb]side
Told a [Db]million to survive
Scattered '[A#m]cross my family [Cb]line
God, I [Db]have my father's eyes
But my [A#m]sister's when I [Cb]cry
I can [Db]run, but I can't hide
From my [D#]family [A#m]line [Bbm]

-Post-Chorus-
From my [D#]family [A#m]line [Bbm]

-Bridge-
Oh-oh
[D#]All that I did to [A#m]try to undo it
[Bbm]All of my pain and all your excuses
[D#]I was a kid, but [A#m]I wasn't clueless
([Bbm]Someone who loves you wouldn't do this)
[D#]All of my past, I [A#m]tried to erase it
[Bbm]But now I see, would I even change it?
[D#]Might share a face and [A#m]share a last name but
([Bbm]We are not the same, same)

-Chorus-
Scattered '[A#m]cross my family [Cb]line
I'm so [Db]good at telling lies
That came [A#m]from my mother's [Cb]side
Told a [Db]million to survive
Scattered '[A#m]cross my family [Cb]line
God, I [Db]have my father's eyes
But my [A#m]sister's when I [Cb]cry
I can [Db]run, but I can't hide
From my [A#m]family [Cb]line [Db]

-Outro-
From my [A#m]family [Cb]line ([Db]Mmhm)⠀
