[VERSE 1]
D D
Grandma had a garden in the backyard
G
She always had a way with things that grow
G A D
She'd be out there early in the springtime
G Bm A
Just as soon as she was sure it wouldn't snow
D
She'd say I love to watch the seeds I've planted,
Gadd9 G
Grow up into what they oughta be
G A D A/C# Bm A
Oh, I thought she was talk - ing about toma - toes;
G A D
She was talking about her family
[CHORUS]
D G D
Grandma's garden grew up strong
G A D D D/F#
because she weeded out whatever could go wrong
G A D A/C# Bm A
She'd say the straight and narrow is the toughest row to hoe
G D/F# Em A7sus4 A
Just remember what you reap is what you sow
G A D
Grandma's love is what made Grandma's garden grow

D
I went to church last Sunday morn'
G
To see what she'd attended sixty years
G A7sus4 D
They asked me if I'd say some words about her
G Bm A6
And I got up, fighting back the tears
D G D
And I said I used to watch her rake the rocks out
D G
And tie up every vine with love and care
G A D A/C# Bm A
That little piece of Grandma taught me some lessons
G Asus4 D
And without her I'd never had a prayer
[CHORUS]
