================================================= Bill Withers - Grandma's Hands ================================================= (Verse) Em Grandma's hands Em Clapped in church on Sunday morning Em Grandma's hands Em A Played a tambourine so well Em Grandma's hands Used to issue out a warning Em A G She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast A G Might fall on a piece of glass A G "Might be snakes there in that grass" Em Grandma's hands (Verse) Grandma's hands Soothed a local unwed mother Grandma's hands Used to ache sometimes and swell Grandma's hands Used to lift her face and tell her, "Baby, Grandma understands That you really love that man Put yourself in Jesus hands" Grandma's hands (Verse) Grandma's hands Used to hand me piece of candy Grandma's hands Picked me up each time I fell Grandma's hands Boy, they really came in handy She'd say, "Matty don' you whip that boy What you want to spank him for? He didn' drop no apple core" But I don't have Grandma anymore A G If I get to Heaven I'll look for Em Grandma's hands ================================================= Notes ================================================= (Intro) It's nice to add the traditional three strums of E minor, palm mute, and then add the humm on the fourth of each bar which makes this tune instantly recognizable. (Tab) There's a pretty good video of this tune being played by the man himself on youtube if you fancy having a go at 'tabbing' Grandma's Hands. It shouldn't be too hard.
