[Intro]: C Am x4
They're thCere for your first year, they give you your first beer
When yDmou get your heart broke, they're there for your worst year
Don't gGet you at all, but your apple don't fall too far frCom 'emAm C Am
They Cown too much wicker and drink too much liquor
You'd wDmash your hands of them, but blood's always thicker
You mGight look just like 'em, that don't mean you're like 'em
But you lCove 'em
FCamily is family, in chFurch or in prison
You gGet what you get, and you dFon't get to pGick 'em
They mCight smoke like chimneys, but gFive you their kidneys
Yeah frGiends come in handy, but fFamily is fGamilyC Am C Am
They're thCere when you're married, divorced, and remarried
You fDmall out of touch, but then someone gets buried
And you're rGight back together like no time has ever gone bCy Am C Am
Can't live wCith or without 'em, you might talk about 'em
But if sDmomeone else does well, then you'll knock 'em out cause
When Git's all said and done, they're the only ones that you gCot
FCamily is family, in chFurch or in prison
You gGet what you get, and you dFon't get to pGick 'em
