[Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] Family reunion, [Bb] 4th of July [Cm] It's been three years since I've [Ab] seen her
Now I remember [Eb] why Aunt Charlotte's at the door
[Bb] Big smile on her face [Cm] The first thing she says to [Ab] me
It looks like we've gained some weight [Eb] You only get that kind of [Bb] honesty
From [Eb] family Uncle Joe's getting
[Bb] plastered
Aunt Martha's getting mad [Cm] Same old cousin dubs
[Ab] Same old jokes, same old [Eb] bad Mama has to keep reminding [Bb] me
Some [Eb] are family, a few [Ab] new babies The same old [Eb]
crazies
[Gm] I've known them my whole [Ab] life and they [Eb] still amaze me
I didn't [Ab] choose them, but I'd hate [Cm] to lose them
But you [Bb] gotta love them, they're [Eb] family Cousin Linda showed
[Bb] up
Her new sweetheart [Cm] I had to laugh when Daddy [Ab] whispered
Fifth time might be the [Eb] charm And there's her brother Lester
[Bb] Linda said he just flew in [Cm] All the way from way out [Ab] yonder
We're still not sure about [Eb] him But different as we are it's good [Bb] to be
[Eb] Some are family, a [Ab] few new babies The same [Eb] old crazies
[Gm] I've known them my [Ab] whole life and they still [Eb] amaze me
I [Ab] didn't choose them, but I'd [Cm] hate to lose them
But you gotta [Bb] love them, they're [Eb] family When [Bb] Mama said the blessing
She [Cm] was fighting back the tears [Ab] Cause the last time we were all together
[Eb] Grandpa was here and she knew how [Fm] proud he'd be
And how much [Eb] he'd love to [Bb] see A few [Ab] new babies
[Eb] The same old crazies [Gm] I've known them my whole [Eb] life and they still
amaze me [Ab] [Eb] Don't get [Ab] to choose them
But you [Cm] hate to lose them You [Bb] gotta love them
