This should go under both Dar Williams and Pierce Pettis (I don't know 
who Pettis is, but I assume he's recorded it as well).
   
FAMILY
On: Dar Williams, _Mortal City_
Words & Music: Pierce Pettis

I capo this on the third fret--not sure where Dar does it.

        G                 D      G
Can you fix this?  It's a broken heart
       Em                D     G
It was fine, but it just fell apart
       Em              C          G
It was mine, but now I give it to you
               Em              D        G
'Cause you can fix it, you know what to do

        C    G         D     G
CHORUS:  Let your love cover me
        Em              D     G
         Like a pair of angel wings
        Em   B   C      G
         You are my family
        Em          D   G
         You are my family

We stood outside in the summer rain
Different people with a common pain
A simple box in the hard red clay
Where we left him to always remain

CHORUS

And the child who played with the moon and stars
Waves a snatch of hay in a common barn
In the lonely house of Adam's fall
Lies a child, it's just a child, that's all
Crying...

CHORUS

Repeat last two lines, end on G
