[Verse 1]
[D]
Great, great,
great, great granddaddy
Paddled over here [G]from across
[D]the sea
He washed up on some windy beach
And dug [G]a hole [D]an d planted a tree
Planted a tree, planted a tree
Dug [G]a hole and planted [D]a tree
And a great -great -great
-grandmother was born
Right there beside [G]the ocean
[D]'s roar
And later when she turned twenty -four
She moved away to [G]Baltimore
[D]And there she had her baby's three
One of them was Greg,
Greg's granddaddy
When he was only seventeen
He met a girl from Tennessee
You'll see, you'll see, you'll [G]see
[D]I had some kids and they
had some more
The youngest [G]was great -grandma,
[D]you know
She grew up and fell in love
She moved out west to Idaho
Oh, oh, oh, oh
She moved out west to Idaho
My granddad was born
in a Chevrolet
Headin' west to California
Raised on the beach in the sunny rays
Married a girl [G]named Nat[D]alie
And on that beach my daddy was born
On a stormy Sunday morning
By the same sea he met my mom,
they say the sea is in my bones
Mama and daddy well they had me,
we flew back to the eastern sea
Now we live so happily,
underneath that great old tree
yeah yeah yeah yeah guitar solo
You
