Am E
All in the tangles you're trying to untie by telling
E Am
But you tie yourself up with the one who's told
Am E
Grandma's hands are stiff, when I hold them they're freezing
E Am
She's still refusing to get old
F C
Her fingers hurt bad, can't close her handbag
E Am
Can't do the buttons of her jumper up
F C
Her body's gone wrong, but stubborn and strong
E Am
She argues with the doctor
Am E
Call me the nurse I don't want a hearse
E Am
The police are getting younger
Am E
The stairs are getting longer, your voice is getting quieter
E Am
The wind is getting stronger
Am E
She emigrated from Russia at nine months old
E Am
She's still got all her teeth, some are filled with gold
Am E
But they hurt her now when she drinks something cold
E Am
She won't stand her false teeth a-rattling her gobhole
F C
Her fingers hurt bad, can't close her handbag
E Am
Can't do the buttons of her jumper up
F C
Her body's gone wrong, but stubborn and strong
E Am
She argues with the doctor
Am E
Call me the nurse I don't want a hearse
E Am
The police are getting younger
Am E
The stairs are getting longer, your voice is getting quieter
E Am
The wind is getting stronger
Am E
Grandma was raised near Stepney Green
E Am
Between Aldgate East and Petticoat Lane
Am E
Her mother always made sure there was food to eat
E Am
But as a girl she ran around without shoes on her feet
F C
Her dad spoke Russian, not much English
E Am
My Gran translated for him, Cockney to Yiddish
F C
She mothered her brothers and daughtered her mother
E Am
The blind fool tried to stop her daughter seeing my father
F C
'Cause he was an atheist, he wasn't kosher
E Am
My mum and dad eloped so they could get closer
F C
But my great gran told my mum you love him that's enough
E Am
'Cause my great gran was forced to wed a man she didn't love
F C
Grandma said we didn't know it but times were very hard then
E Am
But then at least there was the dancing
E Am
But then at least we could go dancing
{Vocal break}
Am E
I was the oldest sister so I never had a childhood
E Am
When I was six years old, she talks
Am E
I had to spoon feed and carry my brothers
E Am
'Till they were old enough to walk
Am E
As a girl she worked as a seamstress
E Am
That's how her nine brothers and her sister were fed
Am E
She has a little hole in her front tooth
E Am
From the constant biting of the cotton and thread
F C
Her fingers hurt bad, can't close her handbag
E Am
Can't do the buttons of her jumper up
F C
Her body's gone wrong, but stubborn and strong
E Am
She argues with the doctor
Am E
Call me the nurse I don't want a hearse
E Am
The cops are getting younger
Am E
The stairs are getting longer, your voice is getting quieter
E Am
The wind is getting stronger
Am E
When she was seventy years I saw her throw a spinning top
E Am
And catch it spinning on a piece of string
Am E
She could touch her toes and shoot a netball
E Am
And spin around the ballroom dancing
F C
Waltzes, Fandangos, Charlestons and Tangos
E Am
She and my grandpa would foxtrot
F C E
They won prizes but illness sacrifices youth
Am
So now they have both stopped
Am E
Call me the nurse I don't want a hearse
E Am
The cops are getting younger
Am E
The stairs are getting longer, your voice is getting quieter
E Am
The wind is getting stronger
Am E
Well call me the nurse I don't want a hearse
E Am
The police are getting younger
Am E
The stairs are getting longer, your voice is getting quieter
E Am
The wind is getting stronger
E Am
The wind is getting stronger
E Am
The wind is getting stronger
{Vocal break}
