F5 C5 G5 C5 New mown hay on a July morn F5 F5 C5 Grandkids running through the knee-high corn G5 C5 F5 Sunburned nose and a scabbed-up knee C5 G5 From a rope on the white oak tree G5 C5 F5 Just another summer's day at Grandpa's farm C5 F5 With Grandma's bucket hanging off my arm F5 C5 You know, the old pump's rusty but it works fine G5 C5 Primed with water from another time CHORUS: F5 C5 G5 C5 It don't take much, but you gotta have some F5 F5 C5 The old ways help the new ways come G5 C5 F5 Just leave a little extra for the next in line F5 C5 G5 C5 They're gonna need a little water from another time F5 C5 G5 C5 Tattered quilt on the goose-down bed F5 F5 C5 "Every stitch tells a story," my Grandma said G5 C5 F5 Her mama's nightgown, her grandpa's pants C5 G5 And the dress she wore to her high school dance G5 C5 F5 Now wrapped at night in its patchwork scenes C5 F5 I waltz with Grandma in my dreams F5 C5 My arms, my heart, my life entwined G5 C5 With water from another time CHORUS F5 C5 G5 C5 Newborn cry in the morning air F5 F5 C5 The past & future are wedded there G5 C5 F5 This wellspring of my sons and daughters: C5 G5 The bone and blood of living waters G5 C5 F5 And, though Grandpa's hand have gone to dust, C5 F5 Like Grandma's pump: reduced to rust, F5 C5 Their stories quench my soul and mind G5 C5 Like water from another time CHORUS
