G D G C
I remember the time when my grandpa and I
G D Em
Would sit by the fire at night
G D G C
And I’d listen to stories, of how he was there
G D Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light
G D G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.
G D G C
He said: Mom and Dad sent me off to school
G D Em
Where I learned how to read and to write
G D G C
And they listened for hours, as I read from my books
G D Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
G D G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.
G D G C
Your Grandma and I, we were Wed at Sixteen
G D Em
Lord, she was a beautiful sight
G D G C
And proudly I placed the ring on her hand
G D Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
G D G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.
G D G C
About one year later, your daddy was born
G D Em
And your grandma held my hand so tight
G D G C
Oh! I can’t tell the joy, as she brought forth new life
G D Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
G D G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.
G D G C
But having her child, it did weaken her soul
G D Em
She just wasn’t up to the fight,
G D G C
But she looked so peaceful, as she went to her rest
G D Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
G D G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.
G D G C
Then, as now, the times they were hard
G D Em
To succeed you would try all your might
G D G C
But sometimes love blooms, and sometimes dreams die
G D Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
G D G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light
