[Intro]

D  A  Bm7  G
 
 
[Verse]

D                   A      
  I hardly take it off this 
         Bm7
wrist of mine
         G                    D
It only works about half the time
                  A       
He promised it to me when 
        Bm7
I was a kid
       G                    A
Now I wear it just like he did
 
           A                        G
A-tellin' stories on the porch swing
                              A
Lightin' up a Phillies cigar
                          
But it's more than just 
   F#        G
a time piece on my left arm
 
 
[Chorus]

        G              D
It's a hug your mama, save your money
 A              Bm
Talk to Jesus, love your country
 G                D
Hunt and fish as much as you can
       A
Don't take a minute for granted
 
       G                     D
These days it ain't good at tellin' time
    A             Bm7
But it tells me a lot
       G
About livin' this life
A                D   A  Bm7  G
On granddaddy's watch
 
 
[Verse]

D                     A          
  It's probably only worth about 
       Bm
twenty bucks
              G   
Band's faded now,  
                  D
second hand gets stuck 
                    A   
But that ain't the stuff   
                Bm7 
that matters to me 
                        G       
It's the symbol of the man that  
        A
I wanna be
                   F#     G
It's a constant reminder from 

a wise old timer
 
 
[Chorus]

G                  D
To hug your mama, save your money
 A              Bm
Talk to Jesus, love your country
 G                D
Hunt and fish as much as you can
       A
Don't take a minute for granted
 
       G       
These days it 
               D
ain't good at tellin' time
    A             Bm
But it tells me a lot
       G
About livin' this life
A                G   D  A  Bm
On granddaddy's watch
              G   D
Granddaddy's watch
 
 
[Break]

 A                            
He's watchin' over me up there, 
   G
I know
 A             
And down here, 
      D                 G
he's with me everywhere I go
 
 
[Chorus]

        G                
Sayin' you hug your mama, 
 D
save your money
 A              Bm
Talk to Jesus, love your country
 G                D
Hunt and fish as much as you can
       A
Don't take a minute for granted
 
       G       
These days it 
               D
ain't good at tellin' time 
    A             Bm
But it tells me a lot
       G
About livin' this life
A                D   A  Bm  G
On granddaddy's watch
              D   A  Bm  G
Granddaddy's watch
 
 
[Outro]

D                   A                 Bm
  I hardly take it off this wrist of mine
         G
It only works about half the time
