Chords for My Grandfather's Fiddle (The Sharecroppers)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I got a load of my [G] grandfather's fiddle _ _ [Em] It's unlike [C] anything you've [G] seen before
_ _ [Em] The strings are [G] old, the bow is [C] weak The bridges [G] warp, the keys don't keep
[D] But you should have seen him play that [G] St.
Andrew
_ _ _ I got a load [D] of my [G] grandfather's fiddle _ It [Em]
hasn't been [C] played since the [G] day he died _ _
[Em] But now that [G] I've learned how to play I [C] can bring back memories of the [D] days
I can almost [G] make my mother cry [Em] Put teardrops in [C] my grandma's [D] eyes
Whenever I fiddle out that old St.
[G] Andrew
_ _ _ I'd like to restore my [G] grandfather's fiddle By [Em] putting new [C] strings tied [G] around new keys
_ [Em] But I won't restore the physical [C] things But only the tunes [G] that the memories [D] bring
And grandma [G] Maya will get that [Em] feeling When she hears [C] that St.
Anne's [D] reeling
And her and mom will see grandpa bow [G] once more _ _
Yes, I got a load of my [G] grandfather's fiddle It [Em] hasn't been played [C] since the [G] day he died
