Joe Diffie - The Grandpa That I Know
A D A E A X2
[A]Brand new shoes they [D]hurt my [A]feet
This necktie is [E]chokin [A]me
Cuttin off my [D]air sup[A]ply
When I hang my [E]head to [A]cry
When I hang my [E]head and [A]cry.
[A]I see tears on [D]daddys [A]face
Someones hummin, [E]Amazin [A]Grace
Rain beats on this [D]graveside [A]tent
Preacher swears he [E]did re[A]pent
Preacher swears he [E]did re[A]pent.[Ab]
Chorus:
Theyve [E]got him layin [A]there in pinstripes
[D]Howd they get him [A]in that [E]suit
I [D]guess the Lord with [A]recognize him
Without his over[E]alls and [A]mules
[E]They all say he [A]looks so natural
[D]All I see is a [A]cold dark [E]hole
I [D]wont commit this [A]day to memory
That aint The Grandpa [E]That I [A]Know
That aint The Grandpa [E]That I [A]Know.

Ya know [B]no tractor never [E]pulled his [B]plow
He walked and cussed, and [F#m]loved that [B]ground
His hands sowed each [E]single [B]seed
Then prayed for rain and [F#m]fight the [B]weeds
Prayed for rain and [F#m]fight the [B]weeds.
He said the [B]simple life, [E]suits me [B]fine
Never dreamed beyond the [F#m]county [B]line
Grandma was his [E]boyhood [B]bride
Hell be back in her [F#m]arms to[B]night
Hell sleep there in her [F#m]arms to[B]night.[Bb]
