INTRO: D
G D Brand new shoes, they hurt my feet A D This lace collar's choking me G D Cutting off my air supply A D When I hang my head to cry A D When I hang my head to cry G D I see tears on Daddy's face A D Someone's humming "Amazing Grace" G D Rain beats on this graveside tent A D Preacher says, "He did repent." A D Preacher says, "He did repent."
PRE-CHORUS:
A D They've got him laying there in pinstripes G D A How'd they get him in that suit? G D I guess the lord will recognize him A D Without his overalls and mule
CHORUS:
A D They all say he looks so natural G D A But all I see is a cold dark hole G D I won't commit this day to memory A D That ain't the Grandpa that I know A D G D A D That ain't the Grandpa that I know G D A tractor never pulled his plough A D He walked and cussed and loved that ground G D His hand sowed each and every seed A D He'd pray for rain and fight the weeds A D He'd pray for rain and fight the weeds G D He said, "The simple life, it suits me fine." A D Never dreamed beyond the county line G D Grandma was his boyhood bride A D He'll be there in her arms tonight A D He'll sleep there in her arms tonight
PRE-CHORUS:
A D They've got him laying there in pinstripes G D A How'd they get him in that suit? G D I guess the lord will recognize him A D Without his overalls and mule
CHORUS:
A D They all say he looks so natural G D A But all I see is a cold dark hole G D I won't commit this day to memory A D That ain't the Grandpa that I know
CHORUS:
A D They played a pretty organ number G D A Swore it was his favourite tune G D But I know he preferred a fiddle A D Playing Carol County blues
CHORUS:
A D They all say he looks so natural G D A But all I see is a cold dark hole G D I won't commit this day to memory A D That ain't the Grandpa that I know A D That ain't the Grandpa that I know
