Verse 1
G 
A  bonnie wee lassie
C 
whose name it was Nell
G 
C 
Lived in a house where
D 
G 
her grandmother dwelled
The house it was small
C 
and the windows no less
G 
C 
D 
Having four panes, one heated,
G 
a glass that nice
C 
Little window that cute, little window
D 
that sweet, little window where
G 
Grandmother dwells.
C 
G 
Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, I think it amiss,
C 
before going away
D 
G 
just to give me one kiss.
C 
G 
That I will nelly, he answered her true,
C 
D 
to her surprise he poked his
G 
head through the hole.
C 
In the window, that nice little window,
D 
that cute little window,
G 
where Grandmother dwelled
He gave her three kisses,
C 
G 
C 
and great was the smack to her surprise
D 
He couldn't get his head
G 
back through that hole
C 
In the window, that nice little window,
D 
that cute little window,
G 
where Grandmother dwelled
He ripped and he tore
C 
G 
and he cursed and he swore
C 
Grandma heard the racket
D 
jumped out on the floor
G 
She grabbed for the poker
C 
and a lick she gave one
G 
C 
Another like that would
D 
have broke his backbone
G 
With his head in the window,
C 
that nice little window
D 
That cute little window
G 
where grandmother dwelled
C 
G 
She lifted the ladle from out of the pot,
C 
D 
G 
No batterer took the beating he got,
He ran down the road
C 
G 
with might and with may,
C 
While round his shoulder
D 
the sash and the frame
G 
of that cute little window,
C 
That sweet little window,
D 
that dear little window
G 
where Grandmother dwelt.
