[Verse 1]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
Silver gray hair neatly combed in place.
Cmaj7 A7/C# B7 B/C# B/D# Em7
There were four generations of love on her face.
Dm7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Dbdim7 Am9
She was so wise, no surprise passed her eyes.
Fmaj7 C/D F6
She'd seen it all.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
I was a child, oh about three or four,
Cmaj7 A7/C# B7 B/C# B/D# Em7
All day I'd ask questions at night I'd ask more.
Dm7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Dbdim7 Am9
But whenever, she never, would ever,
Fmaj7 C/D Ebdim/D
Turn me away. No oh.
[Chorus 1]
F/G F/G Cmaj7
I'd say how can I be sure what is right or wrong?
Cmaj7 Eb/F Eb/F A#maj7
And why does what I want always take so long?
A#maj7 F#maj7
Please tell me where does God live
G# A#/C C/D
And why won't He talk to me?
F/G
I'd say, grandma what is love?
F/C Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Will I ever find out?
Eb/F Eb/F A#maj7
Why are we so poor, what is life about?
A#maj7 F#maj7 G# A#/C C/D
I wanna know the answers before I fall off to sleep.
A#/C C/D
Oooh oh.
[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 Ebm7 Dm7
She sort of smiled as she tucked me in,
Cmaj7 A7/C# B7 B/C# B/D# Em7
Then she pulled up that old rocking chair once a - gain.
Dm7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Dbdim7 Am9
But tonight she was slightly, remarkably,
FM7 C/D F6
Different somehow.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
Slowly she rocked, looking half asleep,
Cmaj7 A7/C# B7 B/C# B/D# Em7
Grandma yawned as she streched then she star - ted to speak,
Dm7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Dbdim7 Am9
What she told me, would mould me, and holds me,
Fmaj7 C/D Ebdim7/D
Together inside.
[Chorus 2]
F/G F/G Cmaj7
She said all the things you ask you will know someday,
Cmaj7 Eb/F Eb/F A#maj7
But you have got to live in a patient way.
A#maj7 F#maj7
God put us here by fate
G# A#/C C/D
And by fate that means better days.
F/G F/G Cmaj7
She said, child we all moons in the dark of night,
Cmaj7 Eb/F Eb/F A#maj7
Ain't no morning gonna come 'til the time is right.
A#maj7 F#maj7 G# A#/C C/D
Can't get to better days lest you make it through the night.
A#/C C/D
You gotta make it through the night, yes you do.
[Bridge]
A#maj7
You can't get to no better days,
Dm11 D D E F G A C D Ddim7
Unless you make it through the night.
A#maj7
Oh, you will see those better days
Am7 Dm7 C#/D# D#/C# A#/C C/D A#/C C/D
Be pa - tient, be pa - tient, oh baby, be patient.
[Verse 3]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Em7 Ebm7 Dm7
Later that year, at the turn of spring,
Cmaj7 A7/C# B7 B/C# B/D# Em7
Heaven sent angels down and gave grandma her wings.
Dm7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Dbdim7 Am9
Now she's flying, and sliding, and gliding,
Fmaj7 C/D Ebdim7/D
In better days.
[Chorus 3]
F/G F/G Cmaj7
And although I'm all grown up, I still get confused.
Cmaj7 Eb/F Eb/F A#maj7
I stumble through the dark, getting bumped and bruised,
A#maj7 F#maj7
When the night gets in my way,
G#
I could still hear my grandma say,
A#/C C/D
I can hear her say
A#/C C/D
I can hear her say
[Coda]
A#maj7
You can't get to no better days,
Dm11 D D E F G A C D Ddim7
Unless you make it through the night baby.
A#maj7
Oh, you will see those better days,
Dm11 D D E F G A C D Ddim7
But you gotta be patient child, do you hear me yeah, well, well, well well well.
A#maj7
You can't get to no better days,
Dm11 D D E F G A C D Ddim7
Unless you make it, you got to make it, you got to make it, you got to make it through the night yeah.
A#maj7
Oh grandma, oh grandma,
Dm11 D D E F G A C D Ddim7
Do you see me now lady oh oh oh...
A#maj7
She used to sit me on her knee, she used to comb my hair.
Dm11
She used to tell me stories...(fade out)
