Grain Of Sand Tiny Little Sister

by Harvey Andrews

Biography:

Harvey Andrews (born Harvey John Andrews, May 7, 1943 in Birmingham) is an English singer, songwriter, and poet.

From 1964, Andrews supported his nascent career as a singer/songwriter by working as a schoolteacher, before becoming a full-time professional musician in 1966.

Andrews has produced 15 successful albums singing his own songs, many of which have also been recorded by other artists.

His emotive The Soldier transmits the same quiet desperation of a soldier about to die "in conflict" as Wilfred Owen's Dulce Et Decorum Est

CHORUS
*******
C
Is it really that long since I held my tiny little sister?
Am A7 D
Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand?
G C A7
Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her
D G
Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand

----------------------
VERSE 1
********
Em C
Every grain of sand, a day to last forever
D G
Every grain of sand, a memory of time
Em
Every hope we lost, every bridge we crossed
Am
We did it all together
D B7
Every dream we shared, every day we cared
Em
And tried to understand
C
How our lives were planned
D
But still a grain of sand

----------------------
CHORUS
*******
G C
Is it really that long since I held my tiny little sister?
Am A7 D
Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand?
G C A7
Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her
D G
Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand

----------------------
VERSE 2
********
Em C
In the streets we played the games we learned from others
D G
In the streets we played, till Mother called us home
Em
And the days were long, like a summer song
Am
That never told of winter
D B7
And the chalk lines ran to a distant land
Em
We'd one day come to see
C
And we'd ask the stars
D
Whoever will we be?

----------------------
CHORUS
*******
G C
Is it really that long since I held the tiny little sister?
Am A7 D
Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand?
G C A7
Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her
D G
Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand

----------------------
VERSE 3
********
Em C
Then we found our men, promised them forever
D G
Then we found our sons, promised them the world
Em
And we watched them grow, we watched them go
Am
As we had left each other
D B7
And we tried to write, but we never quite
Em
Knew what we ought to say
C
Now I send my love
D
This and every day

----------------------
CHORUS
*******
G C
Is it really that long since I held the tiny little sister?
Am A7 D
Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand?
G C A7
Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her
D G
Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand
A D C G Am G
Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand
