She had a bad childhood
when she was very young
C
so don't judge her too badly
F
she had a schizophrenic mother
who worked in the gutter
and woulda sold herself
C
to the devil gladly
Em
what a sad environment
Am
a bud-ridden tenement
C
and when they couldn't pay the rent
it was 'cause her father was out
G G7
getting liquored
C
oh, the stones been cast
G
and blood's thicker than water
C F C G C
and the sins of a family fall on the daughter
C F C G C
all the sins of a family fall on the daughter
F

and the high I. Q.'s who condemned her
C
knew she was a product of poor heredity
Em Am
it's a fictitious fact when you fall on your back
C G

ah the devil is open to all of us
C
heavens selects a precious few
F
it takes some inside pull to get
C
Gabriel make an angel of you
Em Am
one can't live a lie then expect to die
C
ah-with a soul in paradise
you know you gotta pay the price
like you oughtta
G
blood's thicker than water
C F C G C
and the sins of a family fall on the daughter
C F C G C
yea the sins of a family fall on the daughter
