The Weather Grandpa's Song by Lauren Duski
The Weather Grandpa's Song
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
F
[Verse 1]
F
Christmas wasn't the same without her
Gm
But we put up that tree anyway
Bb F C
Said 'kids don't make a fuss this year, it's just another day'
F
Do my best to keep it normal
Gm
And then it works for a little while
Bb
If he can beat me at a hand of cards
F C
To finally crack a smile
[Chorus]
F
If he still drinks, he'd be drinkin'
Gm
If he still smokes, he'd be lightin' one up
C Bb F C
If he wasn't shuttin' down about right now, he'd be opening up
F
'Bout how he finished all her stories
Gm
And bought her magazines
C Bb F F
The gossip kind from the checkout line she always loved to read
Gm F/A Bb
Tellin' me all about sixty-five years together
Gm C F
But right now he can only talk about the weather
F
[Verse 2]
F
I catch him looking at her favourite chair
Gm
I can almost read his mind
Bb F C
I bet he can see her sitting there, I bet he's going back in time
F
He's thinkin' how they loved like crazy
Gm
And how they fought like cats
Bb
About all the things he misses
F C
Wishin' the good Lord would give her back
[Chorus]
F
If he still drinks, he'd be drinkin'
Gm
If he still smokes, he'd be lightin' one up
C Bb F C
If he wasn't shuttin' down about right now, he'd be opening up
F
'Bout how he finished all her stories
Gm
And bought her magazines
C Bb F F
The gossip kind from the checkout line she always loved to read
Gm F/A Bb
Tellin' me all about sixty-five years together
Gm C Dm
But right now he can only talk about the weather
[Instrumental and vocal ad lib]
[Chorus]
F
If he still drinks, he'd be drinkin'
Gm
If he still smokes, he'd be lightin' one up
C Bb F C
If he wasn't shuttin' down about right now, he'd be opening up
F
'Bout how he finished all her stories
Gm
And bought her magazines
C Bb F F
The gossip kind from the checkout line she always loved to read
Gm F/A Bb
Tellin' me all about sixty-five years together
Gm C Dm
But right now he can only talk about the weather
Gm C F
It's ok, we can talk about the weather

Christmas wasn't the same without her
But we put up that tree anyway
He said "kids don't make a fuss. This year it's just another day"
We do our best to keep it normal
And it all works for a little while
Took him beating me at a hand of cards to finally crack a smile
If he still drank he'd be drinking
If he still smoked he'd be lightning one up
If he wasn't shutting down about right now he'd be opening up
'Bout how he finished all her stories
And bought her magazines
The gossip kind from the check out line she always loved to read
Telling me all about 65 years together
But right now he can only talk about the weather
I catch him looking at her favourite chair
I can almost read his mind
I bet he can see her sitting there
I bet he's going back in time
He's thinking how they loved like crazy and how they fought like cats
About all the things he misses
Wishing the good lord would give her back
If he still drank he'd be drinking
If he still smoked he'd be lightning one up
If he wasn't shutting down about right now he'd be opening up
'Bout how he finished all her stories
And bought her magazines
The gossip kind from the check out line she always loved to read
Telling me all about 65 years together
But right now he can only talk about the weather
I know if he still drank he'd be drinking
If he still smoked he'd be lighting one up
If he wasn't shutting down about right now, he'd be opening up
'Bout how he finished all her stories
And bought her magazines
The gossip kind from the check out line she always loved to read
Telling me all about 65 years together
But right now he can only talk about the weather
It's okay
We can talk about the weather
