I'm My Own Grandpa
By Ray Stevens

    D                         A
Now many, many years ago when I was twenty-three
                                 D
I was married to a widow who was pretty as can be
                                   G
This widow 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.

Chorus:

D       A        D   G       D        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.

     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
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.

Chorus:

D       A        D   G       D        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.

          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.

Chorus:

D       A        D   G       D        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.
