[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
E A ESunday morning after church I went to grandma’s house
BmSneaking round the attic that's when I found
E A E
A military uniform embroidered I-C-E
I said Grandma, who was Grandpa
B ECould you tell a bit to me
E A EShe looked across both shoulders and the air got real still
BAnd she said now that you’re older aw baby I sure will
E A EShe said it’s 2055 And I know it sounds absurd
E B E BAnd what she told me next I remember every word
[Chorus]
AYour grandpa was the kind of man
EWho prayed with all his heart
He'd say he loved America
BBut hated every part
AYour grandpa was the kinda man
EThought hell was where he lived
NC
Well he passed on 20 years ago
EAnd guess what, now it is
[Verse 2]
E A EHe loathed the educated and loathed the needy too
BAnd loathed the folks complaining but that’s all he used to do
E A EHe loved a foreign single mom or colored working man
E B E BYes he loved to tie their hands and feet and drag ’em to his van
[Chorus]
AYour grandpa was the kind of man
EWho loved to hear them scream
And wave his gun at anyone
BHe wanted on the street
AHe said the lord would have his day
EAnd wash away the sin
NC
Well he passed on 20 years ago
ESo I guess he did it then
[Verse 3]
E A EThen Grandma told the tale of how the man fell from power
BAnd they took away his database and his 30 bucks an hour
E A EThey walked ‘em to the gallows once the verdict had been served
B EAnd they asked would you still like that mask to speak your final words
[Chorus]
AYour grandpa was the kind of man
EThat always was convinced
EThat God would save America
BAnd I guess he did
AYour grandpa was that kind of man
EAnd him and his platoon
NC
Yeah they passed on 20 years ago
EAnd not a day too soon
