[Intro]
Am* Caug* C* Am6*
Am Fm Dm C
[Verse 1]
Am* Caug*
Hello, hello, hello, hello (hello, hello, hello, hello)
C* Am6*
It's a motherfucking pleasure (It's a motherfucking pleasure)
No pressure
Am
But would you like to blow my mind
Fm Dm C
And move too fast and plan our perfect lives together? (Plan our perfect lives together)
Am* Caug*
Holy, holy, holy, holy (holy shit)
C*
You mean to tell me tell me tell
Am6*
You're tough to love when you don't love yourself, well
[Chorus]
Am Fm
Welcome to the family
Welcome to the family
Dm C
Welcome to the family
[Verse 2]
Am*
My less exciting features
Caug*
Are packed inside my body
C*
They're crammed into the balcony
Am6*
They're jamming up the lobby
Am Fm
They're falling out the window
You can see them crashing through the glass
Dm C
When I don't keep my lids closed
As the director flicks his wrist
Am* Caug*
The stagehand in the wing has got a silver chain he grips
C* Am6*
And when he lifts it opens up the velvet curtains of my lips
And I say
[Chorus]
Am Fm
Welcome to the family
Welcome to the family
Dm C
Welcome to the family
[Verse 3]
Am*
We're not looking to wish on a star
Caug*
We'??re no good at receiving the help
C*
Who the hell do you think that you are?
Am6*
Trying to make me believe in myself
Am
You're like the sun in the summertime
Fm
I know you are but what am I?
Dm
I don't really wanna sound like a lullaby
C
But I think every family is a butterfly
Am*
You know, pretty from afar, pretty gross up close
Caug* C*
Don't pity what we are, it's mostly unhideous
Am6*
And I'm sitting at the bar with a beer
So cheers, come toast me
Am Fm
Get cozy since we're both lonely
Why don't we leap and then go see
Dm C
What we become, when it's done it's done
But I'm not looking below, so don't ghost me
Am*
And it's seeming like we're in agreement
Caug*
That the demon that we're fighting isn't the exact same
C*
But if we're teaming up and carrying the weight together
Am6*
We can miss a bit of back pain
Am Fm
And if you're into it then we can get up out the city
Dm
In a minute in the fast lane
C
Get hitched in a chapel in Vegas
Maybe get rich, life is a craps game
Am*
And I take my cue, from you
Caug*
On what you wanna do 'bout a last name
C* Am6*
It's not so bad to be a Watsky
[Chorus]
Am Fm
Welcome to the family
Welcome to the family
Dm C
Welcome to the family
[Verse 4]
Am* Caug*
Those fires in your attic that rage without permission
C* Am6*
Some days invade your living room or break out in the kitchen
Am
They breeze right through the building
Fm
They just show up as they please
Dm C
And then retreat like grown up children
Well how'd you like to split this L and
Am*
Tell me what you've witnessed
Caug*
If the price of life is hell
C* Am6*
Well no one ever had to sell me on how nice a fire smells
[Chorus]
Am Fm
Welcome to the family
Welcome to the family
Dm C
Welcome to the family
[Bridge]
Am* Caug*
And there's so much I've been silent on
C* Am6*
But I'll whisper every secret to you when this mic is gone
Am Fm
And I know you'll listen (listen)
And I know it's different (different)
Dm C
But it gives me peace our missing pieces could be siblings
Am* Caug*
The rough nights, ain't leaving
C* Am6*
So why the hell should we?
And I say
[Chorus]
Am Fm
Welcome to the family
Welcome to the family
Dm C
Welcome to the family
