Fmaj7

                                   Gsus4                    G    G7

Finally Outro: 

A#sus4                                          Gsus4 
You know the family is the solution to the world's problems today 
A#sus4                                          
Now let's take a look at the family 
Gsus4                                                                               A#sus4 
In the family the father is like the head, the leader, the director 
                                                      Gsus4 
Not domineering, but showing love, guidance 
                A#sus4 
For everyone else in the family 
                                                                         Gsus4    
Now if we could get all the fathers of the world 

To stand up and be fathers 

That would be great 
A#sus4 
Then we have mothers 
                                 Gsus4 
Who are the right arm of the father 

                                          A#sus4 
There's supposed to-to-to do the cooking 
                                                            Gsus4 
Raise the children, do the sewing 
                                                            A#sus4 
And help the father to guide and direct 

Then there's the son 
Gsus4                                                                 A#sus4 
The son, most sons are like imitators of their father 

So we're back again to the father 
             Gsus4 
And he is guiding in the right way 
                                                A#sus4 
The son is definitely gonna be alright 
                                 Gsus4 
Then we have the daughter 
                                        A#sus4 
Watching her mother 
                                                                                 Gsus4 
Be-because sooner or later she's gonna be a mother 
                                                                               A#sus4 
And she'll have her own sons and daughters 
                     Gsus4 
It don't, it don't just stop there with the family or 
                          
Of-of yours or mine 
                                       A#sus4 
It's a universal family 

Under one divine purpose 
                     Gsus4 
And one divine father 
                A#sus4                                                                          Gsus4 
That is if we all come together no matter what color, race, creed 

Because that's all in the head whether you wanna believe it or not 
                       A#sus4       Gsus4 
'Cause you'll bleed 
        A#sus4 
Hoo... 
                                       Gsus4 
Family, family, family reunion 
           A#sus4                          Gsus4 
It'll be nice, so nice, so nice
