| Am | |
| Grandma's hands, |
| Clapped in church, |
| On Sunday morning, |
| Grandma's hands, |
| E7 | |
| Played a | tambourine so well. |
| Am | |
| Grandma's hands, |
| Used to issue, |
| Out a warning, |
| E7 | |
| She'd say, " | Billy don't you, |
| D7 | |
| Run so fast, |
| E7 | |
| Might fall on, |
| D7 | |
| A | piece of glass, |
| E7 | |
| "Might be snakes there, |
| D7 | |
| In that grass", |
| Am | |
| Grandma's hands. |
| Verse 2: |
| Am | |
| Grandma's hands, |
| Soothed a local unwed mother, |
| Grandma's hands, |
| E7 | |
| Used to | ache, |
| Sometimes and swell. |
| Am | |
| Grandma's hands, |
| Used to lift her face, |
| And tell her, |
| E7 | D7 | |
| "Baby, Grandma | understands, |
| E7 | D7 | |
| That you really, |
| D7 | |
| Love that man, |
| E7 | |
| Put yourself, |

| Grandma's hands. |

| Grandma's hands, |
| Used to hand me, |
| Piece of candy, |
| Grandma's hands, |

| Picked me | up, |
| Each time I fell. |
| Am | |
| Grandma's hands, |
| Boy, they really, |
| Came in handy, |
| E7 | |
| She'd say, | "Matty don' you, |
| D7 | |
| Whip that boy, |
| E7 | |
| What you want, |
| D7 | |
| To | spank him for? |
| E7 | |
| He didn' drop, |
| D7 | |
| No | apple core", |
| E7 | |
| But I | don't have, |
| D7 | |
| Grandma | anymore, |
| E7 | |
| If I get to Heaven, |
| D7 | |
| I'll look for, |
| Am | |
| Grandma's hands. |
