Family Tree Chords & Lyrics by Matthew West
Family Tree
guitar chords lyrics
Capo 3
G - D/F - Em7 - Cadd9
G D/F
You didn't ask for this
Em7
Nobody ever would
Cadd9
Caught in the middle of this dysfunction
G D/F
It�s your sad reality
Em7
It�s your messed up family tree
Cadd9
Now you�re left with all these questions
Am C
Are you gonna be like your father was and his father was?
Am C
Do you have to carry what they�ve handed down?
G D/F
No, this is not your legacy
Em7
This is not your destiny
Cadd9
Yesterday does not define you
G D/F
No, this is not your legacy
Em7
This is not your meant to be
Cadd9
I can break the chains that bind you
G - D/F - Em7 - Cadd9
G D/F
I have a dream for you
Em7
It�s better than where you�ve been
Cadd9
It�s bigger than your imagination
G D/F
You�re gonna find real love
Em7
And you�re gonna hold your kids
Cadd9
You�ll change the course of generations
G D/F
No, this is not your legacy
Em7
This is not your destiny
Cadd9
Yesterday does not define you
G D/F
No, this is not your legacy
Em7
This is not your meant to be
Cadd9
I can break the chains that bind you
Am C
You�re my child, you�re my chosen
G D/F
You are loved, you are loved
Am C
And I will restore all that was broken
G D/F
You are loved, you are loved
G D/F
And just like the seasons change
Em7
Winter into spring
Cadd9
You�re bringing new life to your family tree now
Yes you are, you are
G - D/F - Em7 - Cadd9
G D/F
Oh, this will be your legacy
Em7
This will be your destiny
Cadd9
Yesterday did not define you
G D/F
Oh, this will be your legacy
Em7
This will be your meant to be
Cadd9
I can break the chains that bind you
G D/F
And just like the seasons change
Em7
Winter into spring
Cadd9
You�re bringing new life to your family tree now
