Continues after the ad
Key:
G Bm Peering out of tiny eyes, the grubby hands that grip the rail
F
C D
G Wiped the window clean of frost, as the morning air laid on the ledge
G A whistle awakened someone there,
Bm next door to the nursery just down the hall
F A strange new sound you never
C heard before, a strange new sound that makes
G boys explore
G Tread neat so small those little
Bm feet, amid the morning his small heart beats
F
C G D
G So much excitement yesterday, That must be rewarded must be displayed
Continues after the ad
C D Large hands lift him through the air
Bm B7 Excited eyes contain him there
C G The eyes of those he loves and knows
F C D But what's this extra bed just here
G His puzzled head tipped to one
Bm side, amazement swims in those bright green eyes
F
C Glancing down upon this thing, That
D makes strange sounds, strange sounds
G that sing
G In those silent happy seconds,
Bm that surround the sound of this event
F
C A parent smile is made in moments,
D G they have made for you a friend
C D And all you ever learned from them
Bm B7 Until you grew much older
C Did not compare with when they said
G D G This is your brand new brother G7
C D G This is your brand new brother 2x
