Conan Gray - Family Line Chords

[intro] x2
D#m  F#  B
[verse 1]
   D#m             F#
My father never talked a lot
        B
He just took a walk around the block
             D#m           F#
'Til all his anger took a hold of him
                B
And then he'd hit
   D#m               F#
My mother never cried a lot
             B
She took the punches, but she never fought
                    D#m                F#
'Til she said, "I'm leaving and I'll take the kids"
       B
So she did

[pre-chorus]
              D#m      F#                 B
I say they're just the ones who gave me life
      D#m      F#            B
But I truly am my parents' child

[chorus]
           D#m              F#
Scattered 'cross my family line
       B
I'm so good at telling lies
          D#m               F#
That came from my mother's side
       B
Told a million to survive
           D#m              F#
Scattered 'cross my family line
       B
God, I have my father's eyes
       D#m              F#
But my sister's when I cry
      B
I can run, but I can't hide
        D#m     F#      B
From my family line

[verse 2]
     D#m                  F#
It's hard to put it into words
        B
How the holidays will always hurt
            D#m                        F#
I watch the fathers with their little girls
           B
And wonder what I did to deserve this
    D#m               F#
How could you hurt a little kid?
  B
I can't forget, I can't forgive you
       D#m                  F#
'Cause now I'm scared that everyone
              B
I love will leave me

[chorus]
           D#m              F#
Scattered 'cross my family line
       B
I'm so good at telling lies
          D#m               F#
That came from my mother's side
       B
Told a million to survive
           D#m              F#
Scattered 'cross my family line
       B
God, I have my father's eyes
       D#m              F#
But my sister's when I cry
      B
I can run, but I can't hide
        G#m     D#m      C#
From my family line

[post-chorus]
        G#m     D#m      C#
From my family line

[bridge]
Oh-oh
G#m                D#m
All that I did to try to undo it
C#
All of my pain and all your excuses
G#m               D#m
I was a kid, but I wasn't clueless
 C#
(Someone who loves you wouldn't do this)
G#m                D#m
All of my past, I try to erase it
C#
But now I see, would I even change it
G#m                     D#m
Might share a face and share a last name but
 C#
(We are not the same, same)

[chorus]
           D#m              F#
Scattered 'cross my family line
       B
I'm so good at telling lies
          D#m               F#
That came from my mother's side
       B
Told a million to survive
           D#m              F#
Scattered 'cross my family line
       B
God, I have my father's eyes
       D#m              F#
But my sister's when I cry
      B
I can run, but I can't hide
        D#m     F#      B
From my family line

[outro]
        D#m     F#     B
From my family line (Mmhm)
