Tom: C5

C5            F5  
When I was a little bitty boy,
C5               G5
Just up off the floor
   C5                  F5
We used to go down to Grandma's house,
C5           G5     C5
Every month end or so
       C5               F5
We had chicken pie and country ham ,
    C5                       G5
And home made butter on the bread
        C5                     F5
But the best darn thing about Grandma's house
        C5         G5      C5
Was her great big feather bed

Chorus:
       C5                  
It was nine feet tall and six feet wide,
F5               C5
Soft as a downy chick
                       
It was made from the feathers of forty-leven geese,
       D5                          G5
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
     C5
It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs
      F5                       C5
And a piggy we stole from the shed
                    C5           F5 
We didn't get much sleep, but we had a lotta fun
    G5               C5
On Grandma's feather bed


C5            F5 
After supper we'd sit around the fire
C5               G5
The old folks'd spit and chew
   C5                  F5
Pa would talk about the farm and war
C5           G5     C5
And Granny'd sing a ballad or two
       C5               F5
I'd sit and listen and watch the fire
    C5                       G5
Till the cobwebs filled my head
        C5                     F5
Next thing I'd know, I'd wake up in the mornin'
        C5         G5      C5
In the middle of the old feather bed

**Chorus


C5            F5 
Well, I love my Ma, I love my Pa
C5               G5
I love Granny and Grandpa too
   C5                            F5
I been fishin' with my uncle, I rassled with my cousin
C5           G5     C5
And I even kissed Aunt Lou - ooh!
       C5               F5
But if I ever had to make a choice
    C5                 G5
I guess it oughta be said
        C5                     F5
That I'd trade 'em all plus the gal down the road
        C5         G5      C5
For Grandma's feather bed

**Chorus
