What Family Means To Me

F
What does family mean?
Gm
Does it only mean
Dm
A Mom and Dad and a couple of kids?
Bb
Sure that's where it all begins, but
F
Wedding bands and mortgage loans
Gm
Aren't what makes a house a home
Dm
It's so much more than just the basic things
Bb
It's all that happens in between
F
Like road trip driving 'til the break of dawn
Gm
Off-key singing to our favorite song
Dm
Jumping and yelling, cheering our favorite team
Bb
(Yeaaah)
F
Grandma's cooking and late-night games
Gm
It's good advice and making mistakes
Dm                                             Bb
Then forgiving, forgetting, and loving through everything
Bb                          F
That's what family means to me

[Verse 2]

F
No matter what we do
Gm
We're gonna make it through
Dm
Because it isn't just a box to check
Bb
Or a status that we're trying to get
F
In the stands or back at home
Gm
Family's there to cheer us on
Dm
And it can last forever and a day
Bb
Along with all the memories made
F
Like front room movie nights and hand-me-downs
Gm
Dreaming bigger than our bank accounts
Dm
But knowing we'll always have enough to make ends meet
F
Doctor visits after double dares
Gm
Group hug laughing after family prayer
Dm
And knowing we'd never ever wanna change a thing
Bb
That's what family means to me

[Verse 3]

Gm                Dm
It's working hard and giving up
Dm
Some things we want
Bb
For something more
Gm     Bb
That's so much more

[Chorus]

F
Road trip driving 'til the break of dawn
Gm
Off-key singing to our favorite songs
Dm
Jumping, and yelling, cheering our favorite team
Bb
(Yeaaah)
F
Grandma's cooking and late-night games
Gm
It's good advice and making mistakes
Dm
Then forgiving, forgetting, and loving through everything
Bb
That's what family means to me
F
That's what family means to me
