Family Reserve(Chords)

	        
E                        A 
When I saw the ambulance screaming down Main Street 
E                  B 
I didn't give it a thought 
    E 
But it was my Uncle Eugene 
   A                   E    B  E 
He died on October the 2nd, 1981 
 
E 
And my Uncle Wilbur 
A 
They all called him Skinner 
E                             B 
And they said for his younger ways 
         E 
He'd get drunk in the morning 
                A 
And show me the rolls of fifties and hundreds 
   E                            B        E 
He kept in the glove box of his old grey Impala 
 
                 C#m       B            E  
Chorus: 	 And we're all gonna be here forever 
                                      B 
 	 So Mama don't you make such a stir 
        E 
 	 Put down that camera  
         A 
 	 And come on and join up  
            E           B      E 
 	 The last of the family reserve 
 
E                    A 
Now my second cousin his name was Calloway 
   E                            B 
He died when he'd barely turned two 
            E                A 
And it was peanut butter and jelly what did it 
    E               B            E 
The help she didn't know what to do 
                              B               E 
She just stood there and she watched him turn blue 
 
 
 	 Chorus 
 
E                           A 
And my friend Brian Temple he thought he could make it 
   E                      B 
So from the third story he jumped 
    E 
And he missed the swimming pool 
    A  
But only by inches 
    E        B           E 
And everyone said he was drunk 
 
 
 	 Chorus 
 
E                                              A 
And there was great Uncle Julius and there was Aunt Annie Miller 
    E                  B 
And Mary and Grandaddy Paul 
              E                   A 
And there was Hannah and Ella and Alvin and Attic 
    E            B           E 
And he owned his own funeral home 
 
E                                A 
And there are more I remember and more I could mention 
     E                           B 
Than words I could write in this song 
      E                      A 
But I feel them watching and I see them laughing 
    E              B        E  
And I, I hear them singing along
