The Sins of a Family Barry McGuire
intro C F C F Capo 1st
[F]She had a bad childhood
when she was very young
so don't judge her too [C]badly
[F]she had a schizophrenic mother
who worked in the gutter
and woulda sold herself
to the devil [C]gladly
[Em]what a sad environment
[Am]a bud-ridden tenement
and when they [C]couldn't pay the rent
it was 'cause her father was out
getting [G]liquor[G7]ed
oh, the [C]stones been cast
and blood's thicker than [G]water
and the [C]sins [F]of a [C]family [G]fall on the [C]daughter
all the [C]sins [F]of a [C]family [G]fall on the [C]daughter
[F]at the age of 16 she had been around more
than any girl over [C]30
[F]and the high I. Q.'s who condemned her
knew she was a product of poor [C]heredity
[Em]it's a fictitious fact when you [Am]fall on your back
[C]you can backtrack failure with inspection without [G]exception
ah the si[C]ns of[F] a [C]family [G]fall on the [C]daughter
yea the [C]sins [F]of a [C]family [G]fall on the [C]daughter
break- C-G-C
[F]ah the devil is open to all of us
heavens selects a precious [C]few
[F]it takes some inside pull to get
Gabriel make an angel of [C]you
[Em]one can't live a lie [Am]then expect to die
[C]ah-with a soul in paradise
you know you gotta pay the price
like you oughtta
blood's thicker than [G]water
and the [C]sins [F]of a [C]family [G]fall on the [C]daughter
yea the [C]sins [F]of a fa[C]mily fa[G]ll on the [C]daughter
