Tuning: Standard
Capo 3

Intro: D

VERSE 1
[D]If grandpa was alive right now
[G]There ain't no tellin' [A]what he'd have to [D]say
[D]Why he had fifteen wives all living [G]with him
When he [A]finally passed a[D]way
And [G]though I've just got two now mama
[G]That's enough to keep me satis[D]fied
I [A]haven't had a son yet but the [G]good Lord knows
The [A]three of us have [D]tried

CHORUS
'Cause the [A]Pennsylvania [G]Dutch
That we once [A]spoke has been [D]forgotten
And the [G]Mormon way of [D]life is almost [A]gone
But [G]now and then we [A]gather down in [D]Salt [A]Lake [G]City
To [G]raise our voices [A]in a joyful [G]song
And we sing:[D] Heavenly Father,[G] Holy [D]Mother
Keeper of our children tiller of the [A]land
[D]Take us to the river[G] in a horse and [D]buggy
Give us our salvation help us [A]make our [D]stand

VERSE 2
[D]No, ma'am, I did not go to see
[G]The Reverend Brigham [A]Young while I was [D]there
But [D]I'm sure glad to know you wanted [G]him
To mention [A]my name in a [D]prayer
I [G]hope he did not preach about the young folks
That re[G]fused to make the [D]change
'Cause [A]if he did I'm sure I got a [G]little more
Than [A]my share of the [D]blame

CHORUS
'Cause the [A]Pennsylvania [G]Dutch
That we once [A]spoke has been [D]forgotten
And the [G]Mormon way of [D]life is almost [A]gone
But [G]now and then we [A]gather down in [D]Salt [A]Lake [G]City
To [G]raise our voices [A]in a joyful [G]song
And we sing:[D] Heavenly Father,[G] Holy [D]Mother
Keeper of our children tiller of the [A]land
[D]Take us to the river[G] in a horse and [D]buggy
Give us our salvation help us [A]make our [D]stand
