D              Bm
Passively one day as the
 A                    G
sun rose out of it's house
D           Bm
So did this little old guy as
     A                  G
he whistled out of his mouth
     D           Bm
And happily and gay Well
   A                  G
I guess not exactly that
       D            Bm
Because he found a special girl
A                   G
That put him in a special trance

Chorus:
D           G
He fell in love so quickly
D                 Bm  A    D
What the hell was he to expect
              Bm
That the girl under his
A               G
arm wasn't the same
D      G         D
As any other girl That he
     Bm           A       D
had thought that he once met
         A                    G
I guess you could only blame fate

Things started getting weird
as they started to kiss
She often felt his beard and
remembered how her father she missed
And then quietly one day
He sang a song from deep within his heart
Causing some indigestion
He finished with a great big fart and

Chorus:
She knew at that one moment
That song was something she heard before
So she asked him to do that again
Then out the door they hurried
She was gonna find out for sure
So she analyzed his rear end

              D
She said When I was a little
Bm       A           G
girl my dad left my mom
D          Bm
He used to always fart and
 A                 G
sing this special song
    D                 Bm
Now I wasn't quite so sure
       A              G
until your pants did fall
       D               Bm
Cause now I know that you're my
             A       G
dad because you use ben wah balls
          D
I said a wah wah wah-wah-wah
Bm              A  G
Wah wah-wah-wah wah
         D           Bm
ben wha balls wah wah wah-wah-wah
 A                           G
Wah wah-wah-wah wah ben wah balls
