Family Line

Afinação: E A D G B ECapotraste: 4th traste [Verse 1] Bm A My father never talked a lot D He just took a walk around the block Em 'Til all his anger took a hold of him Bm And then he'd hit A My mother never cried a lot D She took the punches, but she never fought Em 'Til she said, "I'm leaving and I'll take the kids" Bm So she did [Pre-Chorus] D Bm I say, "They're just the ones who gave me life" D Bm But I truly am my parents' child [Chorus] Bm Scattered 'cross my family line A I'm so good at telling lies D That came from my mother's side Em Told a million to survive Bm Scattered 'cross my family line A God, I have my father's eyes D But my sister's when I cry Em I can run, but I can't hide Bm From my family line [Verse 2] Bm A It's hard to put it into words D Em How the holidays will always hurt Bm D I watch the fathers with their little girls Bm A D And wonder what I did to deserve this Em Bm How could you hurt a little kid? D A I can't forget, I can't forgive you Bm Em 'Cause now I'm scared that everyone I love will leave me [Chorus] Bm Scattered 'cross my family line A I'm so good at telling lies D That came from my mother's side Em Told a million to survive Bm Scattered 'cross my family line A God, I have my father's eyes D But my sister's when I cry Em I can run, but I can't hide Bm D From my family line [Post-Chorus] Bm D From my family line [Bridge] Oh-oh Bm All that I did to try to undo it Em All of my pain and all your excuses A I was a kid, but I wasn't clueless D (Someone who loves you wouldn't do this) Bm All of my past, I tried to erase it Em But now I see, would I even change it? A Might share a face and share a last name but D (We are not the same, same) [Chorus] Bm Scattered 'cross my family line A I'm so good at telling lies D That came from my mother's side Em Told a million to survive Bm Scattered 'cross my family line D God, I have my father's eyes A But my sister's when I cry Em I can run, but I can't hide Bm From my family line [Outro] Bm D From my family line (Mmhm)
