   Hey! This is a good good song...
   it goes..


     D      		         A   
Now many, many years ago when I was twenty-three
          			     D
I was married to a widder who was pretty as can be
        			       G
This widder had a grown up daughter who had hair of red
   E				A
My father fell in love with her and soon they too were wed.



     D      		         A
This made my dad my son-in-law and changed my very life
          			     D
My daughter was my mother for she was my father's wife 
        			       G
To complicate the matter even though it brought me joy
   E				A
I soon became the father of a bouncing baby boy.


     D      		         A
My little baby then became a brother-in-law to dad
          			     D
And so became my uncle though it made me very sad
        			       G
For if he was my uncle then that also made him brother 
   E				A
Of the widder's grown up daughter who of course was my step-mother.


     D      		         A
Father's wife then had a son who kept him on the run 
          			     D
And he became my grandchild for he was my daughter's son 
        			       G
My wife is now my mother's mother and it makes me blue 
   E				A
Because although she is my wife, she's my grandmother too.


     D      		         A
Now if my wife is my grandmother, then I'm her grandchild
          			     D
And every time I think of it, it nearly drives me wild 
        			       G
For now I have become the strangest case you ever saw 
   E				A
As husband of my grandmother, I am my own grandpa.



D       A        D   G       G7       A
I'm my own grand-pa. I'm my own grand-pa.
	  D                    G
It sounds funny I know, but it really is so
    D	   A         D
Oh, I'm my own grand-pa.

Enjoy!
