Verse 1:

G        D                  Em
Touch me while we both have hands
G        D              Em
We won't keep them very long
G         D              Em             C
Watch the window curtain blowing in the breeze
G         D            Em
Keep your blessed memories


Verse 2:

G        D             Em
It's not what we talk about
G        D            Em
When the table gossip turns
G       D                Em           C
Someday you might find a circle of my friends
G           D                 Em
And they'll cry when you walk in

Bridge:

D                              Em
The grass is high on grandpa's farm
D                            C
But he's not there to cut it down
D                            Em
Grey cat walking through the yard
      C                                       D
Stops short and turns around as if he heard a sound


Verse 3:

G            D               Em
And we'll forget this solemn day
G        D             Em
We'll be always young again
G          D               Em                C
But I'll remember him, the one who's left us now
G            D                 Em
And hold you close as you'll allow
