[Verse 1]
[G]Grandpa wore his
suit to dinner nearly every day
[C]No particular reason,[G]
he just dressed that [D]way
[G]Brown necktie and a matching
vest and both his wingtip shoes
[C]He built a closet on a hig[G]h -back porch and
put a [D]penny in a burned -out [G]fuse
Grand[C]pa was a carpenter,
he built houses, stores, and [G]banks
He [C]chained, camels, [G]cigarettes,
and hammered nails and [D]planks
He was [G]a little on the level,
he shaved even every [C]door
Bullet for
Eisen[G]hower
Cause
Wink[D]ler won [G]the war[C]
[G][D][G][C][G][D][G]
Well he used to sing me
Blood on the
Sabbath
And rock me on his knee
[C]And let me listen to the rad[G]io
Before we got to bed
[D]Well he [G]tried the church on
Sunday
And he'd take me with him too
[C]Stained glass in every window[G],
Iro[D]nate in every [G]key.
Your [C]grandpa was a carpenter,
He built houses, stores, and [G]banks.
Chain[C]s smoked chemo cig[G]arettes,
And hammered nails and [D]planks.
He was a [G]level on the level,
Shaved even every [C]door.

Eisen[G]hower,

she went to school in

She used to buy me com
