          F
They're there for your first year, they give you your first beer

      Gm
When you get your heart broke, they're there for your worst year

       C                                                  F     Dm F Dm
Don't get you at all, but your apple don't fall too far from 'em

     F
They own too much wicker and drink too much liquor

       Gm
You'd wash your hands of them, but blood's always thicker

     C
You might look just like 'em, that don't mean you're like 'em

         F
But you love 'em

 F                     Bb
Family is family, in church or in prison

     C                         Bb           C
You get what you get, and you don't get to pick 'em

      F                              Bb
They might smoke like chimneys, but give you their kidneys

       C                         Bb        C    F Dm F Dm
Yeah friends come in handy, but family is family

          F
They're there when you're married, divorced, and remarried

     Gm
You fall out of touch, but then someone gets buried

            C                                              F Dm F Dm
And you're right back together like no time has ever gone by

            F
Can't live with or without 'em, you might talk about 'em

        Gm
But if someone else does well, then you'll knock 'em out cause

     C                                                       F
When it's all said and done, they're the only ones that you got

 F                     Bb
Family is family, in church or in prison

     C                         Bb           C
You get what you get, and you don't get to pick 'em

      F                              Bb
They might smoke like chimneys, but give you their kidneys

Yeah family is funny, they'll ask you for money

C                         Bb            C
Even though they know you ain't got no money

       F                       Bb
They show up at Christmas, get up in your business

      C                       Bb        C
They might not be fancy, but family is family
