Willie Nelson - When i was young and grandma wasnt old

^D Front porch sitting in an ^Gold rocking ^Dchair ^G The sun is hot in the Texas s^Dky ^D Garden growing ^Gclothes out on the ^Dline ^G Dusty road when a car goes ^Dby ^D Story telling of ^Gdays long a^Dgo ^G And the only place she'd ever ^Dbeen ^D Singing softly This ^GWorld Is Not My ^DHome ^G Memories take me back a^Dgain ^{A G D}

When I was ^Gyoung and Grandma wasn't ^Dold When she ^Dguided me as I watched life un^Afold Any^Dthing we didn't have we didn't ^Greally need to ^Dhold When I was ^Dyoung and ^AGrandma wasn't ^Dold

^D She'd throw a party and ^Gall of her ^Dfriends ^G Would gather around the quilting ^Dframes ^D They'd always call out for ^Gme to come in^Dside ^G And give me nickels and dimes to ^Dsing ^D It makes me happy that ^GI can still go ^Dback ^G My memories are so ^Dclear ^D Of how It used to be^G when I never ^Ddreamed ^G Of ever looking back from ^Dhere ^{A G D}

When I was ^Gyoung and Grandma wasn't ^Dold When she ^Dguided me as I watched life un^Afold Any^Dthing we didn't have we didn't ^Greally need to ^Dhold When I was ^Dyoung and ^AGrandma wasn't ^Dold
