  D                                                                                              G  
  Last Sunday we got in the car and we drove
                     A7                                                                         D                              G/B      A7  
  To the town you were raised in, your boyhood home
  D                                                                         G  
  The trees were just turning, up on the ridge
             A7                                                              D                                      G/B         A7  
  And this was your valley when you were a kid
  D                                                                                              G  
  You showed me the railroad that your daddy worked on
                  A7                                                                              D                                         G/B         A7  
  As we neared the old house where your granny lives on
  D                                                                                                         G  
  She's nearing ninety years now, with her daughters by her side
             A7                                                                                                 D                                      Bm7  
  Who tend the places in the heart where loneliness can hide
  Bm7                            A9                              G                    A7                 D  
  Raised by the women who are stronger than you know
  Bm7                      A9                                    Em7                                                 A7  
  A patchwork quilt of memory only women could have sewn
  D                                                                                                              G  
  The threads were stitched by family hands, protected from the moth
  Em7                                                         G                              A7                                    D                    G/B              A7  
  By your mother... and her mother, the weavers of your cloth
  (2nd verse, same chords)
