Chord Gitar dan Lirik Lagu The Sins of a Family Oleh Barry McGuire

She had a bad childhood

when she was very young
so don’t judge her too badly
she had a schizophrenic mother

who worked in the gutter

and woulda sold herself
to the devil gladly
what a sad environment
a bud-ridden tenement
and when they couldn’t pay the rent

it was ’cause her father was out
getting liquored
oh, the stones been cast
and blood’s thicker than water
and the sins of a family fall on the daughter
all the sins of a family fall on the daughter

at the age of 16 she had been around more
than any girl over 30
and the high I. Q.’s who condemned her
knew she was a product of poor heredity
it’s a fictitious fact when you fall on your back
you can backtrack failure with inspection without exception
ah the sins of a family fall on the daughter
yea the sins of a family fall on the daughter

break- C-G-C

ah the devil is open to all of us
heavens selects a precious few
it takes some inside pull to get
Gabriel make an angel of you
one can’t live a lie then expect to die
ah-with a soul in paradise

you know you gotta pay the price

like you oughtta
blood’s thicker than water
and the sins of a family fall on the daughter
yea the sins of a family fall on the daughter
