Intro: (G - 1 bar)
Verse 1

1                                     4
Years ago my granny told me about her girlfriends. 
      1                        5
Where love meant sacrifice and true love never ends. 
1                                           4      
They would never let their man the wash the dishes 
1           5                 1
Never do anything against his wishes
           4                 1                        5
They would said, "Do all you can, just to please your man
1                              4
When exhausted at night, still treat your man right." 
           1        5           1
That's how grannies treat their man. ... So
Chorus 
       4                               1
I like girlfriends ... with ... granny faces 
                           5
Their love grows ... as it ages 
     1                       4
They put themselves last, Oh boy that's a thing of the past
    1              5                          1
The past embraces, - girlfriends ... with ... granny faces
Verse 2 
  1                                   4
Today, the modern woman raises her eyebrow
1                                5     
Saying "It was you then, (ha ha) -  but it's me now
1                                     4
Worshiping your man is a thing of the past
1                 5                   1
Woman's rights is here and it's gonna last
    4              1                                   5
She says, I'm your woman, if I'm treated with an equal hand. 
1                              4
When exhausted at night, don't expect me to treat you right."
               1            5          1
That's how the modern woman treats her man ... But
Bridge
4       1           4         1
Take me back to the old and removed,
     4       1        2         5
It's sweeter than the new and improved.
      4          1          4          1       
Where love lives longer and love grows stronger
            4            1            2            5
I want some granny style lovin' in my modern style livin' ... So
