[Verse 1]
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7
Silver gray hair neatly combed in place.
Gmaj7 E7/G# F#7 F#/G# F#/A# Bm7
There were four generations of love on her face.
Am7 Gmaj7 F#m7 Dbdim7 Em9
She was so wise, no surprise passed her eyes.
Cmaj7 G/A C6
She'd seen it all.
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7
I was a child, oh about three or four,
Gmaj7 E7/G# F#7 F#/G# F#/A# Bm7
All day I'd ask questions at night I'd ask more.
Am7 Gmaj7 F#m7 Dbdim7 Em9
But whenever, she never, would ever,
Cmaj7 G/A Ebdim/A
Turn me away. No oh.
[Chorus 1]
C/D C/D Gmaj7
I'd say how can I be sure what is right or wrong?
Gmaj7 A#/C A#/C Fmaj7
And why does what I want always take so long?
Fmaj7 C#maj7
Please tell me where does God live
D# F/G G/A
And why won't He talk to me?
C/D
I'd say, grandma what is love?
C/G Gmaj7 Gmaj7
Will I ever find out?
A#/C A#/C Fmaj7
Why are we so poor, what is life about?
Fmaj7 C#maj7 D# F/G G/A
I wanna know the answers before I fall off to sleep.
F/G G/A
Oooh oh.
[Verse 2]
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Bm7 A#m7 Am7
She sort of smiled as she tucked me in,
Gmaj7 E7/G# F#7 F#/G# F#/A# Bm7
Then she pulled up that old rocking chair once a - gain.
Am7 Gmaj7 F#m7 Dbdim7 Em9
But tonight she was slightly, remarkably,
CM7 G/A C6
Different somehow.
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7
Slowly she rocked, looking half asleep,
Gmaj7 E7/G# F#7 F#/G# F#/A# Bm7
Grandma yawned as she streched then she star - ted to speak,
Am7 Gmaj7 F#m7 Dbdim7 Em9
What she told me, would mould me, and holds me,
Cmaj7 G/A Ebdim7/A
Together inside.
[Chorus 2]
C/D C/D Gmaj7
She said all the things you ask you will know someday,
Gmaj7 A#/C A#/C Fmaj7
But you have got to live in a patient way.
Fmaj7 C#maj7
God put us here by fate
D# F/G G/A
And by fate that means better days.
C/D C/D Gmaj7
She said, child we all moons in the dark of night,
Gmaj7 A#/C A#/C Fmaj7
Ain't no morning gonna come 'til the time is right.
Fmaj7 C#maj7 D# F/G G/A
Can't get to better days lest you make it through the night.
F/G G/A
You gotta make it through the night, yes you do.
[Bridge]
Fmaj7
You can't get to no better days,
Am11 A A B C D E G A Ddim7
Unless you make it through the night.
Fmaj7
Oh, you will see those better days
Em7 Am7 G#/A# A#/G# F/G G/A F/G G/A
Be pa - tient, be pa - tient, oh baby, be patient.
[Verse 3]
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Bm7 A#m7 Am7
Later that year, at the turn of spring,
Gmaj7 E7/G# F#7 F#/G# F#/A# Bm7
Heaven sent angels down and gave grandma her wings.
Am7 Gmaj7 F#m7 Dbdim7 Em9
Now she's flying, and sliding, and gliding,
Cmaj7 G/A Ebdim7/A
In better days.
[Chorus 3]
C/D C/D Gmaj7
And although I'm all grown up, I still get confused.
Gmaj7 A#/C A#/C Fmaj7
I stumble through the dark, getting bumped and bruised,
Fmaj7 C#maj7
When the night gets in my way,
D#
I could still hear my grandma say,
F/G G/A
I can hear her say
F/G G/A
I can hear her say
[Coda]
Fmaj7
You can't get to no better days,
Am11 A A B C D E G A Ddim7
Unless you make it through the night baby.
Fmaj7
Oh, you will see those better days,
Am11 A A B C D E G A Ddim7
But you gotta be patient child, do you hear me yeah, well, well, well well well.
Fmaj7
You can't get to no better days,
Am11 A A B C D E G A Ddim7
Unless you make it, you got to make it, you got to make it, you got to make it through the night yeah.
Fmaj7
Oh grandma, oh grandma,
Am11 A A B C D E G A Ddim7
Do you see me now lady oh oh oh...
Fmaj7
She used to sit me on her knee, she used to comb my hair.
Am11
She used to tell me stories...(fade out)
