[Bm] [G]
[Bm] [G] My daddy was shy [C] and he looked [G] inside his head
He turned this way, [D] has I ever seen a [G] man
With a little skin and a little stick
And [C] he was hard as a brick
[D] He just couldn't talk to [Em] no one
[F#] And [A] that must [C] be where I get [G] it from
[Bm] [G] My uncle worked in a [C]
[G] plutonium mine
His job was to set up the dynamite
And he got too close to [C] a charge underground
[D] And all of his students [Em] didn't know
[B] And [A] that must [C] be where I get [G] it from
[D] Chi [C]-let me [G] out of your [Em] room
You know [G] [E] you're in the middle [C] of the room
[D] Chi -let [C]
me [G] out of your [A] room
You [D] know you're in the [G] middle of the room
My mama [C]
turned [G] three years old
She wasn't afraid [D] of nothing [G] at all
She said her prayers to [C] be proper and all
And [D] she swore on her grave and [Em] her gun
[F#] And [A] that must [C] be where I get [G] it from
[Bm] [G] My great-granddad went mad, [C] he was totally [G] tweaked
He wore the same suit [D] every day of [G] the week
And I asked how it feels [C] to be such a freak
[D] And he said, you tell [Em] me son
And [A] that must be [C] where I get [G] it from
[D] Chi -let [C] me [G] out of your [Em]
room
[F#m] [A]
[C] [D] Chi-let me [C]
[G] out of [A] your room

[G]
Dad's little hands [C]
sat in [G] his lap
Like a couple [Em] of [G] crabs, it got caught in a trap
And he shook my hand from so [C] far away
And [D]
he looked like a spot [Em] on the sun
[G] And [A] I guess [C] that's where I get it [G] from
[Em]
[G] And [A] I guess [C] that's where I get [Em] it from
[G] And [A] I guess [C] that's where I get it from
