Grandmas Hands Chords

The riffs during the intro and verse are tabbed out at the top, but strumming Em works if you just want to focus on the vocals. The guitar is minimal on the original recording and there is considerable room for creative liberty. Not a hard song, but it is fun.Was this info helpful?

Grandma's hands clapped in church on Sunday morning
Em9 Em6 B7
Grandma's hands played a tambourine so well
Em9 Em6 Em9 Em6
Grandma's hands used to issue out a warning
Em9 B7 A7
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
B7 A7
Might fall on a piece of glass
B7 A7
Might be snakes there in that grass,"

Grandma's hands sooth the local unwed mother
Em9 Em6 B7
Grandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swell
Em9 Em6 Em9 Em6
Grandma's hands used to lift her face and tell her
Em9 B7 A7
She'd say, "Baby Grandma understands
B7 A7
That you really loved that man
B7 A7
Put yourself in Jesus' hands."

Grandma's Hands
Em9 Em6 Em9 Em6
Grandma's hands used to hand me piece of candy
Em9 Em6 B7
Grandma's hands picked me up each time I fell
Em9 Em6 Em9 Em6
Grandma's hands, boy they really came in handy
Em9 B7 A7
She'd say, " Mattie don't you whip that boy
B7 A7
What you want to spank him for?
B7 A7
He didn't drop no apple core,"
B7 A7
But I don't have Grandma anymore
B7 A7
If I get to heaven I'll look for
Em
