Grandma Song
Defiance, Ohio
The Great Depression
D A Bm (A) G A
Humans can be the cutest of animals sometimes and I walk out the hospital cursing cars
D A Bm (A) G A D
because all this turnover makes me so tired.
A Bm (A) G
And how are you feeling? All the white in these hospital walls can't quite wash out
A D
your tired weak eyes.
Bm(C#m)D Bm (C#m) D
And Grandma tucks you in at night, says "Never be afraid of anything outside."
Bm (C#m) D G A
Grandma tucks you in at night. Says "Goodnight, little sweet."
D A Bm
Do you come from a dead people? These pictures of the past litter the floor like
G A D
newsprint - like cities fell in stacks
A Bm (A) G A
and men jumped from buildings. The dust was overwhelming. Do we expect anything to
D
last?
D Bm
Goodnight, little sweet. (Goodnight, little sweet)
A G
I'll sing you to sleep. (Watch everything recede)
A D
La la la laa
Bm
Goodnight, little sweet. (Goodnight, little sweet)
A G
Watch everything recede. (I'll sing you to sleep)
A D
La la la laa.
