[Verse 1]
G Em7
What a perfect afternoon
DM7 D7
to listen to my grandpop's uke
G Em7
(you know) I never got to hear him play
DM7 D7
but he’d be glad to see it put to use
[Verse 2]
G Em7
I wonder if he hears these strings
DM7 D7
I wonder if he hears these tunes
G Em7
you know Nan is lovely as can be
DM7 D7
you sure know how to pick a view
oh oh oh oh

[Verse 3]
G Em7
Man it’s such a perfect day
DM7 D7
he wouldn’t want it any other way
G Em7
he’d be sipping on some sweet iced tea
DM7 D7
and probably thinking of new story
[Verse 4]
G Em7
The more I get to know your girl
DM7 D7
the more I get she misses you
G Em7
but she would never change her mind
DM7 D7
she would carry it again for you
