Verse 1:
A augmentedA
How's the wife with the husband
C# minorC#m
Who doesn't understand
B minorBm
Why she starts to cry each morning
DmDm
And the coldness in her hands
A augmentedA
And the cold cold ballerina
C# minorC#m
Whose thoughts of love and life
B minorBm
Have split her down the middle
DmDm
Till she's cracked like walked on ice
A augmentedA
And the prince of fifteen years
C# minorC#m
With no roof over his life
B minorBm
Cause his parents don't know of his meaning
DmDm
Or his needle and his knife
Chorus:
A augmentedA C# minorC#m E MajorE
And how's the family
A augmentedA C# minorC#m E MajorE
How's the family
Verse 2:
A augmentedA
How's the tired widowed grandmother
C# minorC#m
Who has lost half of her life
B minorBm
And the overweight aunt from nowhere
DmDm
Who can cook but is no wife
A augmentedA
And she thinks its so disgusting
C# minorC#m
About the movies that are made
B minorBm
And she sleeps with just a pillow
DmDm
And a memory that fades
A augmentedA
Of a husband who had tried
C# minorC#m
To do everything so right
B minorBm
Till his heart screamed and stopped beating
DmDm
As he made love one last night
Chorus
A augmentedA C# minorC#m E MajorE
And how's the family
A augmentedA C# minorC#m E MajorE
How's the family
Verse 3:
A augmentedA
How's the boy and the girl
C# minorC#m
And the lives that lie ahead
B minorBm
And from two they join as one
DmDm
They say we'll love till we are dead
A augmentedA
And the babies come and grow
C# minorC#m
And the mothers laugh and cry
B minorBm
And the men know who they're working for
DmDm
And what's more they know why
A augmentedA
Cause its happy to be said
C# minorC#m
When tears can laugh at pain
B minorBm
And if you love the thought of love
DmDm
Your birth will never end
Chorus
A augmentedA C# minorC#m E MajorE
And how's the family
A augmentedA C# minorC#m E MajorE
How's the family
