None of them
Lucy Kaplansky - The Gift
INTRO: G C G D C G
C
Grandfather came to Canada
G
With a trade of a different time
D
A learned man of god
C G
He just wasn't worth a dime
C
So, mended clothes for pennies
G
While his children went to school
D
Sang them asleep at night
C G
Songs from the Old World and New
CHORUS:
D G
Ohh, he could sing
C G
Had nothing to leave behind
D Em C
But his voice, gave him wings
D C G
For a little while, he could fly_
INTERLUDE: C G D C G
C
There was talk on the radio
G
About a contest with a prize
D
Cast to the best singer
C G
Thought he'd give it a try
C
His son could play the piano
G
And don't you know, they won
D
Paid off some debts
C G
And the money was all gone
CHORUS:
D G
Ohh, he could sing
C G
Had nothing to leave behind
D Em C
But his voice, gave him wings
D C G
For a little while, he could fly_
INSTRUMENTAL: C G D C G D C Em C G
C
Never saw his children grown
G
He was too young when he died
D
His son became a scholar
C G
Played piano on the side
C
When I was young my father played
G
And I would sing along
D
Songs from the world he knew
C G
And I remember 'most every one
INTERLUDE: D C G D C G
C
My voice was passed down to me
G
Through the family line
D
The gifts that we are given
C G
Are the gifts we leave behind
