      Family of the Year - The Stairs
Capo 3

[INTRO]
C G C F  C G C F  Am F 


[VERSE]
C     G         C                F          C    
  Who sleeps in beds when you've got the sunrise
G       C             F            Am              F 
Wasting time watching infomercials live on channel 9
C        G     C       F             C    
  Us and Billy Mays, nowhere else to rile
G        C         F             Am      F
Stealing blankets, sleeping in a pile


[CHORUS]
G                         G6              G7
They made the sunrise for people like us
              G                            F
So we have an excuse as to why we're still up
G                       G6                G7
  Just so we can feel a little bit better
                    G                    F
About the neighbor's angry letter on our door step
       C    G       F      
On our door fucking step


[VERSE]
C             G/C           C            F/C    C            
  Went to the house of some friends that I just met
         G/C   C        F/C             Am      F 
  Didn't feel okay so I bought some cigarettes
C         G/C             C        F/C             C           
  Tonight everyone's with everyone else getting it on
      G/C    C          F/C        Am
  I'm alone asleep with my clothes on
             F
Maybe still awake


[CHORUS]
G                         G6              G7
They made the sunrise for people like us
              G                            F
So we have an excuse as to why we're still up
G                       G6                G7
  Just so we can feel a little bit better
                    G                    F
About the neighbor's angry letter on our door step
       C    G       F      
On our door fucking step


[VERSE]
C                G     C        F             C    
  Woke up with raccoon eyes and crackled face paint
       G        C             F     Am    F 
From a night of campfires and M-D-M-A
C               G        C       F      C    
  The sun comes over the hill in Joshua tree
      G                C     F                Am
Let's grab a bottle of wine, some of Jamesy's weed
         F
If it's okay


[SOLO]
Am/D  F  Dm  C  Bb  F  G


[CHORUS]
G                         G6              G7
They made the sunrise for people like us
              G                            F
So we have an excuse as to why we're still up
G                       G6                G7
  Just so we can feel a little bit better
                    G                    F
About the neighbor's angry letter on our door step


[OUTRO]
G                         G6              G7
They made the sunrise for people like us
              G                            F
So we have an excuse to watch it come up
    C  G     C F C G C F Am F 
And it comes up
