I was talking to my grandma on her deathbed F
And she looked at me and said
G C
Please go tell the family my last words

G Am
I said I will and held her hand F
her eyes welling up with tears

I can't imagine all the fears she's fearing

And she said Matthew tell the family I said
HARMONICA PART C G Am F

I was asking my loves father for her hand
And he looked into my eyes
I didn't know what he was thinking

He turned his head and looked up to the sky
Took a moment to himself
took a breath and finally made his answer

And he said Matthew if you'd simply tell me

I was talking to my nephew about love
He said he likes a girl
But he's too scared to go and tell her

He asked me for advice about this girl

I was walking down the street with Jesus Christ

HILARIOUS!!! great job! and ur dog is as persistent as mine when it comes to wanting to play tug of war. :-)

[senorgriffo]

@SHUGABELLA totally! Or i'll be playing piano and he just pushes his entire body into me and he looks at me saying "PET ME!"

[senorgriffo]

@kennykeyboard Thanks! And that's awesome. You're going to love it. As a grand piano player 73 keys doesn't always cut it. But that keyboard sounds AMAZING
