Words, My Grandpa Said
Saturday, April 28, 2007
Wade Farlowe
Bm7 E Bm7 E A C E / A C E
If I knew back when, what I know now
I wouldn't been stuck round here anyhow
Was the words, my Grandpa said to me
You're still young and got a lot to learn
A dollars' spent for every nickel earned
Those were words, my Grandpa said to me
Words, my Grandpa said to me
Break 1 Bm7 E Bm7 E A C E A C E
Life is tough, no matter what you choose
Sometimes you win, an' sometimes ya sing the blues
Was the words, my Grandpa said to me
You could nestle in or just saddle up
It's your choice, determine which way is up
Those were words, my Grandpa said to me
He said now, words, my Grandpa said to me
Break 2 Bm7 E Bm7 E A C E
E A E Bm7 A E Bm7 A E A C E A C E
If'n I knew then, what I know now
I wouldn't been hangin' round here anyhow
Was the words, my Grandpa said to me
Follow my words and you can't go wrong
He shoveled silage and busted in this song
This song my Grandpa sang to me
E A
Cause, my buckets' got a hole in it
A E
Yeah, my buckets' got a hole in it
E Bm7
Yeah, my buckets' got a hole in it
A E
I can't buy no beer
E A

A E
Yeah, my buckets' got a hole in it
E Bm7
Yeah, my buckets' got a hole in it
A C Em E
I can't buy no beer
