Gram gram keeps a box of spiders
F         C              Bb
says they're on me when I sleep
F         C              Bb
waitin' in the outhouse for me
F            C            Bb
Underneath the seat


F          C               Bb
Great grandmother's ‘bout 97
F      C                     Bb
She is sure when she gets to heaven
        F             C               Bb
Old St. Peter's gonna throw his arms around her and say
            F     C           Bb
I've waited s-o-o-oo long for us to meet


        F       C      Bb
Put the General in the box
    F            C              Bb
And buried him behind the Stony Point Church of Christ
           F  C   Bb
When I was three
         F    C        Bb
When the Lord comes to take me 
     F          C     Bb
I'll die with a smile on 
F            C                      Bb
Because he's taking all my pain and fears
     F        C              Bb
They said the General's last words were 
      F           C       Bb
'It's hotter than hell in here'

So she told me as a child
I would hold it in for hours
to the hand of God
to the hand of God
to the hand of God
