Magic

D

[verse 1]
D                       Bm
the waters broke and we headed to 
the hospital
G                                 
hoping this would be the day we'd 
A
finally get to meet you
D               Bm
we were excited and we were nervous
G                     A
your mum was so calm, I put on my 
bravest face
    D                   Bm
as they hooked up a machine to 
listen to your heartbeat
G                                 
a sound that i would not forget, 
   A
in fact i can still hear it


[verse 2]
G                        A    
it sounded steady and it sounded 
     D
strong
D                        Bm
the contractions started off like 
waves
Bm
turned into a giant storm
G                           A
suddenly we're lost at sea in a 
little fishing boat
   D                               
your mother swam to shore, climbed 
  Bm
a mountain and ran a marathon
G                       A
I stood on the sideline offering 
encouragement
D                               
the midwife was a shining light 
Bm
through the tunnels and the caves
G                            A   
to think I thought I was prepared
    D
 to witness how a life was made

and then somewhere around midnight, 
Bm
they said that something wasn't 
right
G                          A
declared it an emergency and said 
they'd need to operate
G
the room sped up the world slowed 
down
     D
and man i was scared
   Bm
as we stepped in the theatre
G                D
magic filled the air


[verse 4]
        G               A
then you arrived and i cried
D                        Bm
your whole life flashed before my 
eyes
   G                        A
completely overwhelmed i was 
petrified
         G                        
'til the doctor said you and your 
A
mum were alright
     G
the midwife let me cut the cord
    D
I've never felt love liek this 
before
   Bm                         G  
as I announce you to the world;  
A         D
   it's a girl


[verse 5]
D                                 
and the first time that i saw you 
          Bm
felt like I already knew you
        G                       
it was like i'd always known you 
             A
like you'd always been here
D                                 
the first time that i held you it 
Bm
felt like i could hear you
   G                           A
communicate with you without making 
a sound
           D                       
because a new day had just begun 
  Bm
and you had brought so much with it
     G                          
and now we're sitting in a cloud 
      A
with you wrapped in a blanket

       D                           
your mother held you in her arms I 
 Bm
knew that we would be ok
 G                             A  
this is all that matters now, now 
                D
we are a family


[verse 6]
          G                 A
oh you arrived, changed my life
D                       Bm
never have i ever felt this alive
        G                  D   
you've got that familiar look in 
       A
your eye
      G
I'll tell you now that you're a 
lucky girl
       D
you've got the best mum in the whole
 world
         Bm
and I love her even more
         G        A      D
after witnessing your birth
