Chords with lyrics
Song: Grandpa
Chorded: Keith D.
G+G
You stood on that bank when I got baptized
E minorEm
Gave me a thirty thirty when I turned nine
G+G
At sixteen you caught me drinking out in the barn
G+G
I could hear you cheering when we won state
E minorEm
And you held my hand at Grandma's grave
G+G
And I'll always be thankful you never sold the farm
Chorus:
D MajorD
Grandpa you stood so tall
Cadd9Cadd9
Chewed that Red Man, wore overalls
E minorEm
You were the same man on Sunday morning as Saturday night
D MajorD
Five foot six to the top of your hat
Cadd9Cadd9
But when you talked bout the war thought you were Superman
E minorEm
American born simple man with a southern drawl
G+G
You walk the walk, you talk the talk, Grandpa
G+G
G+G
You still swear Roosevelt was the best
E minorEm
That a home grown tomato tastes better than the rest
G+G
And fifty years goes too fast with a woman you love
Well this life I've chose is gettin' busy now
E minorEm
But i know where to go when i need to slow down
Cadd9Cadd9
And when I walk up on your front porch
G+G
It's just like I'm still young
Chorus:
D MajorD
Grandpa you stood so tall
Cadd9Cadd9
Chewed that Red Man, wore overalls
E minorEm
You were the same man on Sunday morning as Saturday night
D MajorD
Five foot six to the top of your hat
Cadd9Cadd9
But when you talked bout the war thought you were Superman
E minorEm
American born simple man with a southern drawl
G+G
You walk the walk, you talk the talk, Grandpa
Cadd9Cadd9
Yeah American born a dirt road man with that slow southern drawl
G+G
Now keep walkin' the walk and talkin' the talk Grandpa
