Chords for Family Reserve Lyle Lovett

[N] _ _ Special equipment is always important.
That is one [Am] thing.
Another thing [A] is that we kind of work [Bb] _ around [B] somebody's work.
_ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ And _ _ _ _ [D]
people, _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] rather than _ _ encourage the [A] camera to come _ [Eb] out,
were actually modest about it.
When the camera would swing around,
they would be like, ah, you [C] can come in hands.
[Bb] I was going to say, that was [A] a little mean.
Or, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gbm] you know, if you're not okay,
you can just use that [C] as a base [B] for old home [A] movies. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ [Am] _

_ [F] _ _ So _ the [Bb] ambulance was screaming down Main Street.
_ [F] I didn't give a damn. _
_ [C] It _ was [F] my uncle Eugene.
He [Bb] died on October _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
1981.
[F] _ _ _ _ And _ my uncle Wilbur, _ _ [Bb]
they all called him Skinner.
[F] They said, but he's [C] gone away. _
_ _ He'd get [F] drunk in the morning,
_ showing the [Bb] rolls of Episton _ Hunters.
He'd get [F] them in the glove box of [C] his old grandpa.
[F] And we're [Dm] all going to [C] be here [F] forever.
_ _ _ _ So mama, don't you take such a [C] stir.
_ _ _ _ [F] Just put down that [Bb] camera.
And come on and join up the [F] last _ _ _ family reserve. _ _ _ _ _
_ My second cousin, _ _ [Bb] his name was Calloway.
[F] He died when he barely turned [C] two.
_ _ _ It was [F] peanut butter _ _ and [Bb] jelly. _
_ _ _ The [F] hell, she [C] didn't know what to [F] do. _ _
She just stood there and she [C] was _ entangled.
[F] _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] We're all going to [C] be here [F] forever. _ _ _ _ _
Mama, don't you take such a [C] stir.
_ _ _ _ Just [F] put down that camera.
_ [Bb] Come on and join up [F] the last _ _ [C] _
family [F] _ reserve. _ _ _
_ And my friend Brian Temple, _ [Bb] he thought he could make it. _
So [F] from the third story he [C] jumped. _ _ _ _
[F] And he missed the swimming _ pool _
[Bb] only by inches.
[F] And everyone _ [C] said he was [F] drunk.

[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ And _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ there was great Uncle Julius, _ _ [Bb] and Annie Miller,
_ and Mary [F] Ann, and _ [C] Granddaddy Paul. _ _
_ _ There was [F] Hannah, _ Ella, _ [Bb] _ _ Alvin, and Pallet.
_ [F] He owned his own funeral home.
_ _ _ And the more I remember, _ [Bb] _
the more I knew,
_ the [F] words I could write in his [C] _
song.
_ But _ [F] I feel him watching, _ and [Bb] I see him dancing,
_ [F] and I hear him singing _ along. _ _
_ He said [Dm] we're all going to [C]
be here forever.
[F] _ _ _
_ Mama, _ don't you take such a [C] stir. _ _ _ _
