Verse 1:

Em7 Grandma's hands A Clapped in church, on Sunday morning, Em7 Grandma's hands B7 Played a tambourine so well Em Grandma's hands A Used to issue, out a warning B7 She'd say, 'Billy don't you A7 Run so fast B7 Might fall on A7 A piece of glass B7 'Might be snakes there A7 In that grass' Em Grandma's hands

Verse 2:

Em Grandma's hands A Soothed a local unwed mother Em Grandma's hands A Used to ache, sometimes and swell Em Grandma's hands A Used to lift her face and tell her B7 A7 'Baby, Grandma understands B7 A7 That you really B7 Love that man A7 Put yourself B7 In Jesus hands' Em Grandma's hands.

Verse 3:

Em Grandma's hands A Used to hand me, piece of candy Em Grandma's hands A Picked me up, each time I fell. Em Grandma's hands A Boy, they really, came in handy B7 She'd say, 'Matty don't you A7 Whip that boy B7 What you want A7 To spank him for B7 He didn' drop A7 No apple core' B7 But I don't have A7 Grandma anymore B7 If I get to Heaven A7 I'll look for Em Grandma's hands
