[Verse 1]
Gb D#m7
What a perfect afternoon
C#M7 C#7
to listen to my grandpop's uke
Gb D#m7
(you know) I never got to hear him play
C#M7 C#7
but he’d be glad to see it put to use
[Verse 2]
Gb D#m7
I wonder if he hears these strings
C#M7 C#7
I wonder if he hears these tunes
Gb D#m7
you know Nan is lovely as can be
C#M7 C#7
you sure know how to pick a view
oh oh oh oh

Gb D#m7
Man it’s such a perfect day
C#M7 C#7
he wouldn’t want it any other way
Gb D#m7
he’d be sipping on some sweet iced tea
C#M7 C#7
and probably thinking of new story
[Verse 4]
Gb D#m7
The more I get to know your girl
C#M7 C#7
the more I get she misses you
Gb D#m7
but she would never change her mind
C#M7 C#7
she would carry it again for you
