Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]If [G]gra[D]ndpa was alive right now[G] there ain't no
tellin' [A]what he'd have to [D]say[Dsus4]
[D]Why he had fifteen wives a living [G]with him
all when he [A]finally passed [D]away
And [G]though I've just got two now mama
that's enough to keep me satis[D]fied
I [A]haven't had a son yet but the [G]good Lord
knows the [A]three of us have [D]tried
Cause the [G]Pennsylvania [A]Dutch that we
once [G]spoke has been forgot[D]ten
And the [G]Mormon way of [D]life
is almost [A]gone
[G]But now and then [A]we gather down in [D]Salt Lake
[G]City to [Em]raise our voices [A]in a joyful [D]song
And we sing Heavenly [G]Father Holy [D]Mother
keeper of our children tiller of the [A]land
[D]Take us to the riv[G]er in
a horse and [D]buggy
Give us our salvation help us
[A]make our [D]stand

[Verse 2]
No ma'am I did not [D]go to [G]see the Reverend
Brigham [A]Young while I [D]was there[Dsus4]
But [D]I'm sure glad to know you wanted
[G]him to mention [A]my name in a [D]prayer
I [G]hope he did not preach about the young
folks that refused to make the [D]change
Cause [A]if he did I'm sure I got a [G]little more
than [A]my share of [D]the blame
Cause the [G]Pennsylvania [A]Dutch...[G][D]
[G][D][A][G][A][D][G][Em][A][D]
