My grandmother, she, at [F] the age of 83, [C] took very sick and very soon [G] she died.
[C] And after she was dead, [F] the will of course was read by [C] a lawyer [G] and we all sat [C] side by side.
To my brother it was found, [F] she left a thousand pounds, [C] the same to my sister [G] I declare.
But [C] when he came [Gm] to me, [F] the lawyer said, I see, [C] she's left you an old armchair.

[C] First a girl did court, [F] and then a ring I bought, [C] and I took her home to be my little wife.
Oh well, my girl and me [F] were as happy as can be, [C] cause when the day was over [G] I declare.
