Brooks Randy - Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer Acoustic Chords & Tabs

Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer -- Randy Brooks -- CAPO II

NOTE:
Christmas represents a wonderful time for the acoustic
holiday sing along.  The key here is playing at CAPO II.
Without the CAPO, the chords become exceedingly complex 
... especially for acoustic guitar.  Also, with this version,
you can play along with the record.  This is a great song to
add to your holiday set list.  I added the intro riff
to mimic the sleigh bells on guitar.
Rock on!  --kidguitar.


Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer -- Randy Brooks -- CAPO II


INTRO: intro riff


CHORUS
D                                 
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
                                      G
Walking home from our house Christmas eve
                                     D     
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
    A7                          D     C/G  G  D
But as for me and Grandpa we be-lieve


VERSE 1
                             A7                                D
She'd been drinking too much egg nog, and we warned her not to go
                        G               A7                              D
But she forgot her medi-cation, and she staggered out the door into the snow
Bm                          F#m      A7                      D
When we found her Christmas morning,   at the scene of the a-ttack
D7                            G                A7                            D
There were hoof prints on her forehead, and in-criminating claw marks on her back

CHORUS
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa we be-lieve


VERSE 2
                         A7                                 D
Now were all so proud of Grand-pa, he's been taking this so well
                          G                  A7                                 D
See him in there watching football, drinking beer and playing cards with cousin Mel
Bm                         F#m      A7                            D
It's not Christmas without Grandma,   all the family's dressed in black
D7                        G                 A7                             D
And we just cant help but wonder, should we open up her gifts or send them back


CHORUS


VERSE 3
Now the goose is on the table, and the pudding made of fig
And the blue and silver candles, that would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig
I've warned all my friends and neighbors, better watch out for your-selves
They should never give a license, to a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves

CHORUS
