I'm My Own Grandpa
[Verse 1]
GMany, many years ago when DI was 23
I was married to a widow who was Gpretty as can be
This widow had a growE7n-up daughter Amwho had hair of red
My A7father fell in love with her and Dsoon they too were wed
This Gmade my dad my son-in-law and Dreally changed my life
For now my daughter was my mother 'Gcause she was my father's wife
DAnd to Gcomplicate the E7matter even Amthough it brought me joy
AI sA7oon became the father of a Dbouncing baby boy
[Verse 2]
My Glittle baby then became a Dbrother-in-law to dad
And so he became my uncle Gthough it mad me very sad
For if he were my Euncle that would Amalso made him brother
Of the Awidows grown-up daughter who was of Dcourse my stepmother
[moves up half a step!]

[Verse 3]
G#Father's wife then had a son who D#kept them on the run
And he became my grandchild for he was G#my daughter's son
My wife is Fnow my mother's A#mmother and it makes me blue
A#Because although she is my wife she'sD# my grandmother two
E for one measure
ANow if my wife is my grandmother Ethen I'm her grandchild
And every time I think of it, Anearly drives me wild
'Cause now I have F#become the strangest Bmcase you ever saw
As Bhusband of my grandmother I Eam my own grandpaw
[Chorus]
Oh AI'm my Eown grandApaw
DI'm my own grandEpaw
It sounds Afunny I know but it Dreally is so
AI'm my Eown grandApaw
(Listen to this now)
I'm my Eown grandApaw
DI'm my own grandEpaw
AI'm my Eown grandpaw
