Many, many years ago when I was 23
I was married to a widow
C 
who was pretty as could be.
A 
This widow had a grown -up
daughter
D 
Dm 
who had hair of red.
D 
His father fell in love with her
G 
and soon they two were wed.
C 
G 
This made my dad my son -in -law
and changed my very life
for my daughter was my mother
C 
cause she was my father's wife.
A 
To complicate the matter
D 
Dm 
even though it brought him joy
D 
He soon became the father
G 
of a bouncing baby boy.
C 
My little baby then became
G 
a brother -in to dad,
And so became my uncle,
C 
though it made me very sad.
A 
For if he was his uncle,
D 
Dm 
then that also made him brother
D 
Of the widow's grown -up daughter,
G 
who, of course, was his stepmother.

Father's wife then had a son
G 
who kept them on the run
And he became my grandchild,
C 
he was my daughter's son.
A 
His wife is now his mother's mother,
D 
Dm 
and it makes him blue,
D 
Because although she is his wife,
G 
she's his grandmother too.
C 
Now if my wife is my grandmother,
D 
then I'm her grandchild,
G 
And every time I think of it,
C 
it nearly drives me wild.
A 
For now he has become
D 
the strangest case you ever saw,
As husband of his grandmother,
G 
Eb 
he is his own grandpa.
