Chords for "Family Reunion" (1979) Rev. Julius Cheeks & Family

_ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I'd like to say one thing right here and that is, _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ a few [Em] days ago [G] _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ we had a family [A] reunion.
_ _ _ [B] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ I was in South Carolina where I was born [D] and raised and we were coming up and I _ [E] brought some of my sisters, [G] brothers, _ _ _ cousins,
_ and _ _
_ [D] _ you know what, [Dm] we got to [A] my sister's house. _
[B] _ _ [D] _ _ We laughed, _ _ _ _ we sang, _ _ _ oh we enjoyed ourselves.
_ _ [Am] _ [G] Most of all, _ _ we had prayer and love was [C] there.
[D] _ And Lord, that's all I'm praying for.
_ [Em] _ _
[A] _ _ [C#] _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] Hear [D] me _ _ now, Lord _
_ [F] _ _ [G] it was _ _ _ _ in the _ [D] _ _
_ sky.
_ [A] Say it one more [Bm] time.
[D] _ _
_ _ Hear _ _ _ _ _ _ me _ now, _ _ _
[E] Lord [Dm] _ _ [G] it was _ _ _ _ in [Em] the [D] sky. _
_ _ _ _ [A] _
Let me tell you what it looks [D] like. _
I don't know how long it's been _ [Bm] _ _ [D] since you got together with your family. _ _
_ _ _ [G] Let me tell you, _ _ _ _ _ it's good to do it [D] sometimes.
Lord, as long [A] as we're together we'll [C] stand [D] _
and the body will fall. _ _
_ [G] If you haven't been [D] home in a long time, _ would you promise me one thing?
[Bm] _ _ [G] _
When you got a [G] chance, _ _ would you do like we [C] do?
_ [D] _
Because we've got this church [A] and all _ _ [D] we have _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ in the _ [D] house. _
_ _ _ _ [A] Let me say this.
[D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Hear me _ now, _ _ _ _ _ Lord it [G] was _ _ _ _ _
[Em] in the [C] sky.
[D] _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ Listen, _ my _ [D] mother, _ _ _ _ she [A] wasn't there.
_ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ My father, [Dm] _ _ [G] _
they already gone before.
But _
[G] _ _ _ _ [D] I bet you somewhere around [A] God's _ _ room.
[D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ And her children.
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] As we're together. _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] In one [D] home. _
_ I [A] can tell you she knows.
_ [Bm] I know we [D] _ _
_ had _ a bad _ _ _ reunion.
_ _ _ _ Oh, [Am] _ _ [G] it _ _ was _ _ in the [C#] _ [D] _ sky.
_ Say [A] it one more time.
My mother.
[D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
Hear _ me _ _ now. _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ It _ _ _ [Bm] was in the _ [D] sky. _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ [D] _ _
