             FAMILY TREE
           MICHAEL MARTIN MURPHEY


INTRO:
NONE

VERSE:
        C majorC
Gonna buy some wood every size and length
        G+G         C majorC
Gonna build it good using all my strength
                     FF
Gonna clear the land where the house will be
          C majorC  G+G        C majorC
And start another branch of the family tree

N.C.      C majorC
Gonna chalk a line and lay a walnut floor
          G+G           C majorC
Build the walls of pine and hang a cherry door
                  FF
I`ll cut the beams above from mahogany
         C majorC  G+G         C majorC
And I`ll get the love from the family tree

CHORUS:
       A minorAm          C majorC
I`ve wandered far and I`ve walked alone
         A minorAm FF        G+G
Till the morning star finally led me home
         C majorC            FF
Now I`m here to stay where I was meant to be
        C majorC  G+G        C majorC
Living in the shade of the family tree


VERSE:
         C majorC
Gonna fill this place like my daddy did
         G+G          C majorC
With a friendly face and a bunch of kids
                   FF
Even though he`s gone he`s a part of me
      C majorC G+G       C majorC A augmentedA
As I carry on this family tree

VERSE:
N.C.        D MajorD
Girl, the wind may blow and the clouds may come
         A augmentedA           D MajorD
Bringing ice and snow, blocking out the sun
                     G+G
The earth may quake and the ground may freeze
         D MajorD  A augmentedA       D MajorD
They will never shake this family tree


CHORUS:
       B minorBm          D MajorD
I`ve wandered far and I`ve walked alone
         B minorBm G+G        A augmentedA
Till the morning star finally led me home
         D MajorD            G+G
Now I`m here to stay where I was meant to be
        D MajorD  A augmentedA        D MajorD
Living in the shade of the family tree

 D MajorD                  G+G
Mama look at him, don`t he look like me
         D MajorD  A augmentedA        D MajorD  D MajorD  A augmentedA  D MajorD
He`s the latest limb on the family tree

         D MajorD            G+G
Now I`m here to stay where I was meant to be
        D MajorD  A augmentedA        D MajorD  D MajorD  A augmentedA   D MajorD
Living in the shade of the family tree


OUTRO:
         D MajorD            G+G
Now I`m here to stay where I was meant to be
        D MajorD  A augmentedA        D MajorD
Living in the shade of the family tree
