C G C G C G For as long as I remember When Friday night came round The family would gather G D Am G G F C out at grandpa's house With supper over and the dishes done Then the best time came C G D7 G At an old upright piano that only grandma played
[Chorus]
C G C G C G She played beautiful dreamer my wild irish rose never played them perfect G D C G G F C but there was love in every note and grandpa sat beside her in harmony they sang C G D G at the old upright piano that only grandma played Em G Em G C G Grandpa was a stubborn man They said it was his style grandma called him onrery G D Am G G F C But she said it with a smile Even he could not desguise the love he felt so strong C G D G We all could see it In his eyes When she played his favorite song
[Chorus]
Em G Em G C G I was almost seventeen When my grandma died I stayed all night with grandpa G D Am G G F C The old man never cried We sat at her piano There was nothing we could say C G D7 G It was the first time in my life I ever heard my grandpa play C G C G C G It wasn't beautiful dreamer my wild irish rose it was a song he played from memory G D C G G F C and he never missed a note I sat right there beside him until the morning came C G D G what a friend we have in Jesus was the only song he played
[Chorus]
C G D G at the old upright piano that only grandma played
