Standard (EADGBE)
One day shinin' eight year s old
when grandma passed away
I was a broken hearted little boy
blowin' ou t that birthday cake
How I cried when the sky le t go
with the cold and lonesome rain
momma smiled said, don't be sad child
g randma's watchin' you today
'Cause there's holes in the floor of heaven
->
and the tears are pouring down
that's how you know she's watchin'
wishin' she could be here now
And sometimes if you're lonely
just remember she can see
->
there's holes in the floor of heaven
and she's watchin' over you and me
Seasons come and season s go
nothin' stays the same
I grew up, fell in love
met a girl w ho took my name
Year by year we made a life
in this sleepy little town
I thought we'd grow old together
Lord I sur e do miss her now
But there's holes in the floor of heaven
and the tears are pouring down
that's how I know she's watchin'
wishin' she coul d be here now
and sometimes when I'm lonely
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-thr ee
I walk her down the aisle
it's a shame her mom can't be here n ow
to se e her lovely smile
They throw the rice, I catch her eye
as the rain starts comin' down
she takes my hand says, daddy don't be s ad
->
'cause I know momma's watchin' now
->
And there's holes in the floor of heaven
and the tears are pouring down
that's how you know she's watchin'
wishin' she coul d be here now
and sometimes when I'm lonely
I remember she can see
yes there's holes in the floor of heaven
and she's watchin' over you and me
watchin' over you and me
watchin' over you and me
watchin' over you and me...
