[Verse 1]
Gbmaj7 Cbmaj7 Fbmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
Silver gray hair neatly combed in place.
Cbmaj7 G#7/C A#7 A#/C A#/D D#m7
There were four generations of love on her face.
C#m7 Cbmaj7 A#m7 Dbdim7 G#m9
She was so wise, no surprise passed her eyes.
Fbmaj7 Cb/C# Fb6
She'd seen it all.
Gbmaj7 Cbmaj7 Fbmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
I was a child, oh about three or four,
Cbmaj7 G#7/C A#7 A#/C A#/D D#m7
All day I'd ask questions at night I'd ask more.
C#m7 Cbmaj7 A#m7 Dbdim7 G#m9
But whenever, she never, would ever,
Fbmaj7 Cb/C# Ebdim/C#
Turn me away. No oh.
[Chorus 1]
Fb/Gb Fb/Gb Cbmaj7
I'd say how can I be sure what is right or wrong?
Cbmaj7 D/Fb D/Fb Amaj7
And why does what I want always take so long?
Amaj7 Fmaj7
Please tell me where does God live
G A/Cb Cb/C#
And why won't He talk to me?
Fb/Gb
I'd say, grandma what is love?
Fb/Cb Cbmaj7 Cbmaj7
Will I ever find out?
D/Fb D/Fb Amaj7
Why are we so poor, what is life about?
Amaj7 Fmaj7 G A/Cb Cb/C#
I wanna know the answers before I fall off to sleep.
A/Cb Cb/C#
Oooh oh.
[Verse 2]
Gbmaj7 Cbmaj7 Fbmaj7 D#m7 Dm7 C#m7
She sort of smiled as she tucked me in,
Cbmaj7 G#7/C A#7 A#/C A#/D D#m7
Then she pulled up that old rocking chair once a - gain.
C#m7 Cbmaj7 A#m7 Dbdim7 G#m9
But tonight she was slightly, remarkably,
FbM7 Cb/C# Fb6
Different somehow.
Gbmaj7 Cbmaj7 Fbmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
Slowly she rocked, looking half asleep,
Cbmaj7 G#7/C A#7 A#/C A#/D D#m7
Grandma yawned as she streched then she star - ted to speak,
C#m7 Cbmaj7 A#m7 Dbdim7 G#m9
What she told me, would mould me, and holds me,
Fbmaj7 Cb/C# Ebdim7/C#
Together inside.
[Chorus 2]
Fb/Gb Fb/Gb Cbmaj7
She said all the things you ask you will know someday,
Cbmaj7 D/Fb D/Fb Amaj7
But you have got to live in a patient way.
Amaj7 Fmaj7
God put us here by fate
G A/Cb Cb/C#
And by fate that means better days.
Fb/Gb Fb/Gb Cbmaj7
She said, child we all moons in the dark of night,
Cbmaj7 D/Fb D/Fb Amaj7
Ain't no morning gonna come 'til the time is right.
Amaj7 Fmaj7 G A/Cb Cb/C#
Can't get to better days lest you make it through the night.
A/Cb Cb/C#
You gotta make it through the night, yes you do.
[Bridge]
Amaj7
You can't get to no better days,
C#m11 C# C# D# Fb Gb G# Cb C# Ddim7
Unless you make it through the night.
Amaj7
Oh, you will see those better days
G#m7 C#m7 C/D D/C A/Cb Cb/C# A/Cb Cb/C#
Be pa - tient, be pa - tient, oh baby, be patient.
[Verse 3]
Gbmaj7 Cbmaj7 Fbmaj7 D#m7 Dm7 C#m7
Later that year, at the turn of spring,
Cbmaj7 G#7/C A#7 A#/C A#/D D#m7
Heaven sent angels down and gave grandma her wings.
C#m7 Cbmaj7 A#m7 Dbdim7 G#m9
Now she's flying, and sliding, and gliding,
Fbmaj7 Cb/C# Ebdim7/C#
In better days.
[Chorus 3]
Fb/Gb Fb/Gb Cbmaj7
And although I'm all grown up, I still get confused.
Cbmaj7 D/Fb D/Fb Amaj7
I stumble through the dark, getting bumped and bruised,
Amaj7 Fmaj7
When the night gets in my way,
G
I could still hear my grandma say,
A/Cb Cb/C#
I can hear her say
A/Cb Cb/C#
I can hear her say
[Coda]
Amaj7
You can't get to no better days,
C#m11 C# C# D# Fb Gb G# Cb C# Ddim7
Unless you make it through the night baby.
Amaj7
Oh, you will see those better days,
C#m11 C# C# D# Fb Gb G# Cb C# Ddim7
But you gotta be patient child, do you hear me yeah, well, well, well well well.
Amaj7
You can't get to no better days,
C#m11 C# C# D# Fb Gb G# Cb C# Ddim7
Unless you make it, you got to make it, you got to make it, you got to make it through the night yeah.
Amaj7
Oh grandma, oh grandma,
C#m11 C# C# D# Fb Gb G# Cb C# Ddim7
Do you see me now lady oh oh oh...
Amaj7
She used to sit me on her knee, she used to comb my hair.
C#m11
She used to tell me stories...(fade out)
