Biografía:
It’s fitting that The Family Crest was born in San Francisco, a city known for its rich history of experimentation, innovation and progressive thinking. In 2009, two young musicians -- Liam McCormick (lead vocals, guitar) and his friend, John Seeterlin (bass) -- settled in San Francisco to record a cycle of songs that McCormick had written. For McCormick, there was explicit intent to include as many people as possible in the music-making, based on his belief that everyone is inherently musical when given the opportunity.

C Em Am G F G
F G F G F G
C
[Verse]
C
There’s a heart here cast in stone
G
And there’s a past, dear, I must atone
Am Em
Oh there were moments I've thrust away
F G
Now there’s a keeper that I must pay
C
So here’s the scythe now and here’s the soil
G
And here’s the seed, dear, that I must toil
Am Em F
To heal the orchard from the cold, dead earth
[Pre Chorus]
Dm
Well I’m sorry, love, for all I have undone
G
And I’m sorry, dear, for what I have become
[Chorus]
C
Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go
Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go

[Verse]
C
Oh these weathered, old hands of mine
G
They have grown weary over time
Am Em
This ageing heart now, it’s in the slow
F G
But, dear, its beating still stands to grow
C
And oh the years, dear, they’ll be harsh and long
G
But I will go out and sing your songs
Am Em F
Over the mountains, on the hills and the streams
[Pre Chorus]
Dm
Oh I’m sorry, love, for all I cannot change
G
For the moments passed, I’ll gladly take the blame
[Bridge]
