Family Line Acordes

[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

I'm so good at telling lies
D
That came from my mother's side
Em
Told a million to survive

Scattered 'cross my family line
A
God, I have my father's eyes
D
But my sister's when I cry

I can run, but I can't hide

[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]

But my sister's when I cry
Em
I can run, but I can't hide

From my family line
 
 
[Outro]
Bm                   D
From my family line (Mmhm)
