_ [B] Sister, _ oh sister, _
_ [G#] _ [G#m] I miss your [D#] shadow, _
_ [B] _ I miss your shade,
_ [C#] _ When I [E] was afraid, _ [B] you pulled me through.
_ _ _ [B] _
_ Sister, _ big sister, _ [G#] _ you set the [D#] standard, _ [F#] _ [B] You set the curve, _ [C#] _ you [E] showed the nerve,
[B] When I needed you. _ _
Those [C#] old hairy-legged boys, [E] Stopped making all that noise,
[B] When you beat them in the dirt without blinking. _
[C#m] My fist flew in the [E] air, Cause I knew that you'd be there,
[F#] To grab them by [D#m] the shirt without thinking.
[F#] _
_ [B] _ _ Sister, oh sister, _
_ [G#m] _ The whole house in [D#] shambles,
[B] You stood straight as a beam, _
_ [C#] _ You made a [E] whole team,
Out [B] of me and you. _ _ _ _

_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C#] That time [C#m] we stole a car, You tried [E] to sneak me in a bar,
[B] When I was only twelve and you were fourteen.
Across [C#m] that parking lot expanse, On [E] them moisture shelves we danced,
While [F#] some cowboy watched you twisting through the porch screen.
_ [B] Sister, _ big sister, _
_ [G#m] _ _ You've been [G] my seawall,
_ [B] _ _ You've been my flood, _ [C#m] _ _ You're in [E] my blood.
I [B] thank God for you, _ _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ [E] You're in my blood. _
I _ _ [B] thank God for you.
