Vamp in [C]
[C] Many, many years ago when [G] I was 23
I was married to a widow who was [C] pretty as can be
This [C7] widow had a [A7] grown-up daughter [Dm] who had hair of red
My [D7] father fell in love with her and [G] soon they too were [G7] wed
This [C] made my dad my son-in-law and [G] really changed my life
For now my daughter was my [G7] mother 'cause she [C] was my father's wife
And to [C7] complicate the [A7] matter even [Dm] though it brought me joy
I [D7] soon became the father of a [G] bouncing baby [G7] boy
My [C] little baby then became a [G] brother-in-law to dad
And [G7] so he became my uncle though it [C] mad me very sad
For [C7] if he were my [A7] uncle then that [Dm] also made him brother
Of the [D7] widows grown-up daughter,
who was of [G] course my step-[G7] mother [A7]
{c: key change to D}
My [D] father's wife then had a son who [A7] kept them on the run
And [A7] he became my grandchild for he [D] was my daughter's son
My [D7] wife is now my [B7] mother's mother and it [Em] makes me blue
Because [E7] although she is my wife she's my [A7] grandmother too
Now [D]if my wife is my grandmother then [A7] I'm her grandchild
And [A7] every time I think of it, [D] nearly drives me wild
'Cause [D7] now I have be-[B7] come the strangest [Em] case you ever saw
As [E7] husband of my grandmother I [A7] am my own grandpaw
Oh [D] I'm my [A7] own grand-[D] paw
[G] I'm my own [A7] grandpaw
It sounds [D]funny I [D7] know but it [G] really is so
Oh [D] I'm my [A7] own grand-[D] paw
(Repeat-Fade)
