Cody Johnson

The Grandpa Song

by Cody Johnson
Cody Johnson

Biography:

In an time of synthetics and plastics, folks appreciate the real thing. Musically, we look for songs that reach beyond our eardrums, touching our hearts. Cody Johnson's unique blend of Country and Rock does just that.
Many Texas Music fans met Cody Johnson’s honest style through the radio singles from his Six Strings, One Dream album: "Nobody to Blame" (#6 on the Texas music charts in 2009); #1"Pray for Rain" (2009 - 2010); and "Texas Kind of Way" (#6, late 2010 – 2011).

[Intro]
D F G D F G D

[Verse]
D
I wish that my Grandad was still here today au
Bm
Cause' I'd love to here what he'd have to say .o|
G Gm D
About three dollars and fifty-nine cents for a gallon of gas
D
And I'd show him my wife and what I've done with my life
Bm
And see if he liked all these songs that I write
G Gm A Asus4
Oh, I wish I knew what he would think about the the fact that
Bm F Bm Bm/A G E7
If you're sixteen and pregnant, you'll get on tv, but yet we're laying off school teachers fast as can be
G A
Oh, I wish I knew what he'd think about us now

[Chorus]
C G
He'd probably ask me why the good ole' US of A
D
Is so damn tied up in our foreign aid
C G
When the American farmers got to sell all the cows
A Asus4
To keep the bank from taking the house.
D F#m/D D7 G Em
I wish I could write him in on my ballot for the next president
G A
Cause' there's men like John Wayne, Augustus McCrae,
D G
The Lone Ranger and his Indian friend
Em A D
But there will never be another man like him

[Verse]
D
I'm glad that I'm not some big Hollywood star
Bm
Who thinks they have the right to go as far
G D
As b***hing about the hundred million dollars they make a year
D
Cause' there's scars on my knuckles and sweat on my brow
Bm
And I know that Grandpa, he'd sure be proud
G D
Of my little part that I've made to our family tree
Bm F Bm
He'd probably ask me why people like Casey Anthony can get off scott free and why our taxes are still killing
G E7
folks just like you and me
G A
Oh I wish I knew what he'd think about us now.

[Chorus]
C G
He'd probably ask me why the good ole' US of A
D
Is so damn tied up in our foreign aid
C G
When the American farmers got to sell all the cows
A Asus4
To keep the bank from taking the house.
D F#m/D D7 G Em
I wish I could write him in on my ballot for the next president
G A
Cause' there's men like John Wayne, Augustus McCrae,
D G
The Lone Ranger and his Indian friend
Em A D
But there will never be another man like him
