Intro
[Bm] [A/C#] [D] [Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Verse
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
I'd walk down the street to my Grandma's house
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
It was just a few doors from my own
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Her roses were dead, but the lights were still on
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
So I let myself in from the cold
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
I'd take off my shoes cause she hated the dirt
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
And I'd try not to curse while she's home
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
The smell of the Dettol and oxtail soup
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
She said "Boy, you don't fit in your clothes"
Chorus
[G] [D]
Amen
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
We said prayers before we ate
[G] [D]
My safe haven
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Take me back to my Grandma's place
Verse 2
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
I was seven years old when I learnt how to cook
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
And ten when I started to sing
[Bm] [A/C#]
Oh she'd bring me to church
[D]
And she'd cover my ears
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
When my dad would scream horrible things
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
And I'd lay on the couch with the plastic wrap
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
God forbid I spill my J2O
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
She'd read me the Bible, I'd stare at the clock
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
And ask Grandma, "When's Mum coming home?"
Chorus 2
[G] [D]
Amen
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
We say prayers at the end of the day
[G] [D]
My safe haven
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Can we go back to Grandma's place
Interlude
[G] [Bm] [A] [D]
Verse 3
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Oh, fifteen years passed, how'd we fall out of touch?
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
So I called to see if you're okay
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
It rang and it rang and I finally gave up
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Now I'm paying a lot for that shame
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Oh, Aunt Jenny told me you're reaching the end
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
And the blood isn't reaching your heart
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
And the funeral came in the blink of an eye
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Oh, I feel like a boy in the dark
Chorus 3
[G] [D]
Amen
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
I pray that the memories won't fade
[G] [D]
My safe haven
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Can I go back to Grandma's place
[G] [D]
I say Amen
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
I pray that the memories won't fade
[G] [D]
My safe haven
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Can I go back to Grandma's place
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Can I go back to Grandma's place
[Bm] [A/C#] [D]
Can I go back to Grandma's place
