C G/B | Am Am/G | Dm G | C F/C C
[Verse]
C. G/B. Am
I read a note my grandma wrote back in
F. G. C
nineteen twenty-three.
C. G/B Am
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he
Dm7. Gsus. G
showed it once to me. He said,
C. G/B. Am
"Boy, you might not understand, but a
F. G. C
long, long. time ago,
C. G/B. Am. F
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none,
G. C. F/C. C
but I loved your Grandma so."
C. G/B. Am. F
We had this crazy plan to meet and run
G. C
away together.
C. G/B. Am
Get married in the first town we came
Dm7. Gsus. G
to, and live forever.
C. G/B. Am
But nailed to the tree where we were
F. G. C
supposed to meet, instead
C. G/B. Am F
Of her, I found this letter, and this
G. C F/C. C
is what it said:
[Chorus]
F. G. C. F
If you get there before I do, don't
G. C
give up on me.
F. G
I'll meet you when my chores are
Am
through;
Dm7 Dm7/C. Gsus G
I don't know how long I'll be.
F. G. C. F
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling
G. Am
wait and see.
F. G. E7
And between now and then, till I see
Am7
you again,
F. G. C. G/B |
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
Am Am/G | Dm G | C F/C C
[Verse]
C. G/B. Am
I read those words just hours before my
F. G. C
Grandma passed away,
C. G/B. Am
In the doorway of a church where me and
Dm7. Gsus. G
Grandpa stopped to pray.
C. G/B. Am. F
I know I'd never seen him cry in all my
G. C
fifteen years;
C. G/B. Am.
But as he said these words to her, his
F. G. C. F/C. C
eyes filled up with tears.
[Chorus]
F. G. C F
If you get there before I do, don't
G. C
give up on me.
F. G
I'll meet you when my chores are
Am
through;
Dm7. Dm7/C. Gsus G
I don't know how long I'll be.
F. G. C. F
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling
G. Am
wait and see.
F. G. E7
And between now and then, till I see
Am7
you again,
F. G C. Am7
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
F. G. E7
Between now and then, till I see you
Am7
again,
F(2) G (NO CBORDS) C
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
