Bo Diddley – The Great Grandfather chords

[Intro]

Em

[Verse 1]
EmThe great grandpappy when the land was young
Am                                   EmBarred his door with a wagon tongue, oh
EmOooh-ho-ho-ho-ho
AmWhen the times got tough and redskins smart
EmSaid his prayers with his shotgun cocked, oh
EmOh-oh-uh-oh, oh-huh-oh

[Verse 2]
EmThe great grandpappy was a busy man
AmCooked his grub in a frying pan
EmPicked his teeth with a hunting knife
Am                                    EmHe wore the same suit all-a his life, oh
EmOoo-oh-ooo
EmYeah-ay-oh

[Verse 3]
EmTwenty-one children came to be blessed
    Am                                 EmThe old man's house in the wilderness, oh
Em  Oh-oh-oh
AmDoubt his story if you can
    EmThe great grandpappy was a busy man
EmOh---oh-oh-oh
AmAh-ha
  EmOoow
