[Intro]
C
[Verse]
C G
Mom says, put on your Christmas best.
C G
Grandpa's coming down this year and it might be his last.
C G
Why Mom? You say that every time.
C G
It seems that he's been dying ever since I was nine.
D A
I don't mean no disrespect because he's old and mean.
D A
But how come we invite him when he always makes a scene?
C G
Tell me why does, he hit me with his cane?
C G
And why should I get him a gift if he don't know my name?
C G
How come, he always calls me "Kate"
C G
And forgets his dentures on his dinner plate?
[Chorus]
F
This could be Grandpa's last Christmas
C
That's what Mother said
F
Grandpa's last Christmas
G C
And soon he might be dead, so be nice
G C
Be nice to Grandpa
[Solo]
C G x4
[Verse]
C G
What can I say to someone 300 years old?
C G
When he seems so content staring at the jello mold
C G
Please Mom, let me go out and play
C G
Or soon I will go deaf like him from hearing him complain
[Break]
C
[Verse]
C G
I know, his life's been long and hard
C G
And he deserves some quiet peace in a nice graveyard
C G
Grandpa, I love you just the same
C G
But I know you won't be happy 'til you drive us all insane
[Chorus]
F
This could be Grandpa's last Christmas
C
That's what Mother said
F
Grandpa's last Christmas
G C
And soon he might be dead, so be nice
G C
Be nice to Grandpa
G C
Cause he's old and he smells
G C
And he's gonna die soon
G C
Be nice to Grandpa
