| Notes: | Each verse adds a new use or mishap for the whiskers. The chorus is the payoff - deliver it with maximum mock-sympathy. Great for building with crowd participation. |
GI have a dear old grandpa
For Cwhom I nightly Gpray
He has a set of D7whiskers
They're Galways in the way
GThey're always in the Cway
The Gcows eat them for D7hay
They Ghide the dirt on Cgrandpa's shirt
They're Galways in the D7way G
GHe ate a bowl of soup once
The Cwhiskers got so Gwet
He D7squeezed them out in glasses
And Gwe're still drinking yet
GThey're always in the Cway
The Gcows eat them for D7hay
They Ghide the dirt on Cgrandpa's shirt
They're Galways in the D7way G
GIn winter they're like snowflakes
In Csummer they turn Ggreen
In D7autumn when the leaves fall
His Gwhiskers can't be seen
GThey're always in the Cway
The Gcows eat them for D7hay
They Ghide the dirt on Cgrandpa's shirt
They're Galways in the D7way G
GThe dog sleeps in the whiskers
The Ccat does too, they Gsay
The D7birds build nests in grandpa's chest
They're Galways in the way
GThey're always in the Cway
The Gcows eat them for D7hay
They Ghide the dirt on Cgrandpa's shirt
They're Galways in the D7way G
