[Verse 1]
C Am7
What a perfect afternoon
GM7 G7
to listen to my grandpop's uke
C Am7
(you know) I never got to hear him play
GM7 G7
but he’d be glad to see it put to use
[Verse 2]
C Am7
I wonder if he hears these strings
GM7 G7
I wonder if he hears these tunes
C Am7
you know Nan is lovely as can be
GM7 G7
you sure know how to pick a view
oh oh oh oh

[Verse 3]
C Am7
Man it’s such a perfect day
GM7 G7
he wouldn’t want it any other way
C Am7
he’d be sipping on some sweet iced tea
GM7 G7
and probably thinking of new story
[Verse 4]
C Am7
The more I get to know your girl
GM7 G7
the more I get she misses you
C Am7
but she would never change her mind
GM7 G7
she would carry it again for you
