[Verse 1]
BbM7 EbM7 AbM7 Gm7 Fm7
Silver gray hair neatly combed in place.
EbM7 C7/E D7 D/E D/F# Gm7
There were four generations of love on her face.
Fm7 EbM7 Dm7 Dbdim7 Cm9
She was so wise, no surprise passed her eyes.
AbM7 Eb/F Ab6
She'd seen it all.
BbM7 EbM7 AbM7 Gm7 Fm7
I was a child, oh about three or four,
EbM7 C7/E D7 D/E D/F# Gm7
All day I'd ask questions at night I'd ask more.
Fm7 EbM7 Dm7 Dbdim7 Cm9
But whenever, she never, would ever,
AbM7 Eb/F Ebdim/F
Turn me away. No oh.
[Chorus 1]
Ab/Bb Ab/Bb EbM7
I'd say how can I be sure what is right or wrong?
EbM7 Gb/Ab Gb/Ab DbM7
And why does what I want always take so long?
DbM7 AM7
Please tell me where does God live
B Db/Eb Eb/F
And why won't He talk to me?
Ab/Bb
I'd say, grandma what is love?
Ab/Eb EbM7 EbM7
Will I ever find out?
Gb/Ab Gb/Ab DbM7
Why are we so poor, what is life about?
DbM7 AM7 B Db/Eb Eb/F
I wanna know the answers before I fall off to sleep.
Db/Eb Eb/F
Oooh oh.
[Verse 2]
BbM7 EbM7 AbM7 Gm7 Gbm7 Fm7
She sort of smiled as she tucked me in,
EbM7 C7/E D7 D/E D/F# Gm7
Then she pulled up that old rocking chair once a - gain.
Fm7 EbM7 Dm7 Dbdim7 Cm9
But tonight she was slightly, remarkably,
AbM7 Eb/F Ab6
Different somehow.
BbM7 EbM7 AbM7 Gm7 Fm7
Slowly she rocked, looking half asleep,
EbM7 C7/E D7 D/E D/F# Gm7
Grandma yawned as she streched then she star - ted to speak,
Fm7 EbM7 Dm7 Dbdim7 Cm9
What she told me, would mould me, and holds me,
AbM7 Eb/F Ebdim7/F
Together inside.
[Chorus 2]
Ab/Bb Ab/Bb EbM7
She said all the things you ask you will know someday,
EbM7 Gb/Ab Gb/Ab DbM7
But you have got to live in a patient way.
DbM7 AM7
God put us here by fate
B Db/Eb Eb/F
And by fate that means better days.
Ab/Bb Ab/Bb EbM7
She said, child we all moons in the dark of night,
EbM7 Gb/Ab Gb/Ab DbM7
Ain't no morning gonna come 'til the time is right.
DbM7 AM7 B Db/Eb Eb/F
Can't get to better days lest you make it through the night.
Db/Eb Eb/F
You gotta make it through the night, yes you do.
[Bridge]
DbM7
You can't get to no better days,
Fm11 F F G Ab Bb C Eb F Ddim7
Unless you make it through the night.
DbM7
Oh, you will see those better days
Cm7 Fm7 E/F# F#/E Db/Eb Eb/F Db/Eb Eb/F
Be pa - tient, be pa - tient, oh baby, be patient.
[Verse 3]
BbM7 EbM7 AbM7 Gm7 Gbm7 Fm7
Later that year, at the turn of spring,
EbM7 C7/E D7 D/E D/F# Gm7
Heaven sent angels down and gave grandma her wings.
Fm7 EbM7 Dm7 Dbdim7 Cm9
Now she's flying, and sliding, and gliding,
AbM7 Eb/F Ebdim7/F
In better days.
[Chorus 3]
Ab/Bb Ab/Bb EbM7
And although I'm all grown up, I still get confused.
EbM7 Gb/Ab Gb/Ab DbM7
I stumble through the dark, getting bumped and bruised,
DbM7 AM7
When the night gets in my way,
B
I could still hear my grandma say,
Db/Eb Eb/F
I can hear her say
Db/Eb Eb/F
I can hear her say
[Coda]
DbM7
You can't get to no better days,

DbM7
Oh grandma, oh grandma,
Fm11 F F G Ab Bb C Eb F Ddim7
Do you see me now lady oh oh oh...
DbM7
She used to sit me on her knee, she used to comb my hair.
Fm11
She used to tell me stories...(fade out)
