Yes my granny is a cripple in Nashville
F C
This story I tell you is true
F C
One day, she went out on her wheelchair
G
Never knowin' it had a loose screw
G
Well a wheel came off of that wheelchair,
C
friends
F C
And on three wheels it trundled away
F C Am
And it trundled right over the edge of a cliff
D7 G C
In an old sea-side town, far away
G C
Now the boy who was pushin the wheelchair
F C
Was a little blind orphan called Joe
F C
And he said "Oh where is my granny?"
D7 G
"And where did that damn wheelchair go?"
G
Well he ran off to search
C
for that wheelchair, friends
F C
But his sightless eyes led him astray
F C Am
And he ran right over the edge of the cliff
D7 G C
In that old sea-side town, far away
G C
Well somebody sent for a doctor
F C
And an ambulance too, it was called
F
And the people who lived in the
C
neighbourhood
G
Stood around and they cried, how they bawled
C
Well the doctor and the ambulance came rushing, friends
F C
They were rushing from two different ways
F
And they crashed with a biff,
C Am
and shot over the cliff
D7 G C
In that old sea-side town, far away
G C
Well they sent for brave father Maloney
F C
To pray for the poor soles they pose
F C
And he said "Well now that we're gathered
here good people"
G
"Well we might as well pray I suppose!"
C
But, too many people had gathered
F C
And the edge of the cliff gave way
F
And they dropped with a yell
C Am
They all shot straight to hell
D7 G
In that old, sea-side town,
G C
so terribly far away
