One day shinin' eight years old
     C(add9) C      Cmaj7 C
when grandma passed away
        Asus   Am      A(add9) Am
I was a broken hearted little boy
        F G
blowin' out that birthday cake

C(add9) C            Cmaj7   C
How I cried when the sky let go
         Asus Am           A(add9) Am
with the cold and lonesome rain
F    Gsus                A(add9) Am
momma smiled said, don't be sad child
 F
grandma's watchin' you today

F      G       F            G        C
'Cause there's holes in the floor of heaven
->      G                 C
and the tears are pouring down
       F       G          C
that's how you know she's watchin'
                  Gsus        G
wishin' she could be here now
      F       G         C
And sometimes if you're lonely
       F      G       Am   G
just remember she can see
->      F            G          C
there's holes in the floor of heaven
        F                       C(add9) C Cmaj7 C
and she's watchin' over you and me

C(add9) C        Cmaj7   C
Seasons come and seasons go
C(add9) C         Cmaj7 C
nothin' stays the same
Asus   Am  A(add9) Am
I grew up, fell in love
      F     G
met a girl who took my name
C(add9) C       Cmaj7  C
Year by year we made a life
        Asus   Am     A(add9) Am
in this sleepy little town
F     Gsus   A(add9) Am
I thought we'd grow old together
       Am F
Lord I sure do miss her now

    G       F            G        C
But there's holes in the floor of heaven
        G                 C
and the tears are pouring down
       F     G          C
that's how I know she's watchin'
   Gsus        G
wishin' she could be here now
    F         G        C
and sometimes when I'm lonely
     F     G       Am   G
I remember she can see

there's holes in the floor of heaven

and she's watchin' over you and me

Well my little girl is twenty-three
  C(add9)  C        Cmaj7  C
I walk her down the aisle
       Asus      Am       Amaj7    Am
it's a shame her mom can't be here now
   F G
to see her lovely smile
     C(add9)   C       Cmaj      C
They throw the rice, I catch her eye

as the rain starts comin' down
    F                         Gsus     A(add9)

'cause I know momma's watchin' now
