INTRO: [D] [D/F#] [G] [A]
[D] [D/F#] [G]
She was [D]born in Kansas City, [Bm]raised in Arkansas
Fell in [G]love with an Ex-Ma[D]rine [A]
She al[D]ready had three babies; he had [Bm]one of his own
They came to[Em]gether for a[D/F#]nother and [A]me [Asus4] [A]
[G]Our family never shared the [A]same last name
[G]But our family was a [A]family the same, and they say
CHORUS:
[D]Blood is thicker than [Bm]water
Oh, but [Em]love is [A]thicker than [D]blood [Dsus4] [D]
[D]Wreck out on the highway, [Bm]rain falling down
Lord, he [G]must have fell asleep at the [D]wheel [A]
There's a [D]number of people just [Bm]standing around
Lord, I [Em]can't condemn the [D/F#]fear that they [A]feel [Asus4] [A]
For that [Bm]river of [Bm/A]red could be the [G]death of me
[Em]God, give me [D/F#]strength and keep re[G]minding [A]me that
CHORUS:
[D]Blood is thicker than [Bm]water
Oh, but [Em]love is [A]thicker than [D]blood
BRIDGE:
And if [G]blood is thicker than [D]water
Well then [C]what are we fighthing [D]for
[G]We're all sons and [F#m]daughters
Of [G]something that means so much [G7/E]more [A]
I [D]see it on my TV but I [Bm]can't understand
Lord it's [G]one big contradiction to [D]me [A]
How in God's [D]name we love thy neighbor with [Bm]fists in our hands
And kill each [Em]other when we [D/F#]just don't a[A]gree [Asus4] [A]
[G]Why can't we see the walls we [A]can't see through
[G]And see what God's been telling [A]me and you, and that is
[D]Blood is thicker than [Bm]water
Oh, but [Em7]love, love is [A]thicker than blood
