(G major) Now, many many years ago
When (D major) I was twenty three
I was married to a widow
Who was (G major) pretty as could be
Verse 2
This (G major) widow had a grown- up daughter
(C major) Had hair of red
My (A major) father fell in love with her
And (D major) soon the two were wed

Verse 3
This (G major) made my dad my son- in- law
And (D major) changed my very life
My daughter was my mother
'Cause she (G major) was my father's wife
Verse 4
To (G major) complicate the matters
Even (C major) though it brought me joy
I (A minor) soon became the (A major) father
Of a boun (D major) cing baby boy
Verse 5
My (G major) little baby then became
A (D major) brother- in- law to (A minor) dad
And (D major) so became my uncle
Though it (G major) made me very sad
Verse 6
For (G major) if he was my uncle
That also (C major) made him the brother
Of the widow's (A major) grown- up daughter
Who, of course, (D major) was my step- mother
Verse 7
(G major) I'm my own (D major) grand (G major) pa
(C major) I'm my (E minor) own grand (A minor) pa
It sound (C major) s funny I know
But it (G major) really is so (E major)
I'm (E minor) my (D major) own grandpa (G major)
Verse 8
My (G major) father's wife then had a son
That kept them (D major) on the run
And he became my grandchild
For he was (G major) my daughter's son
Verse 9
My wife (G major) is now my mother's mother
And it makes (C major) me blue
Because, (A minor) she (A major) is my wife
She's my (D major) grandmother too
Verse 10
(G major) I'm my own (C major) grand (G major) pa
(C major) I'm my own grand (A minor) pa
It sounds (C major) funny I know
But it (G major) really is so (E major)
I'm (E minor) my (D major) own grand (G major) pa
Verse 11
Now, (G major) if my wife is my grandmother
Then, (D major) I am her grandchild
And every time I think of it
It nearly (G major) drives me wild
Verse 12
For now (G major) I have become
The strangest case (C major) you ever saw
As the husband (A major) of my grandmother
I am (D major) my own grandpa
Verse 13
(G major) I'm my own grandpa
I'm (C major) my own (F major) grand (A minor) pa
It sounds (C major) funny I know (A major)
But it (G major) really is so (E minor)
(E major) I'm (D major) my own grand (G major) pa
