G Bm/F#
Peering out of tiny eyes, the grubby hands that gripped the rail.
F C/E G
Wiped the window clean of frost, as the morning air laid on the latch
G Bm/F#
A whistle awakened someone there, next door to the nursery just down the hall
F
A strange new sound you never heard before.
C/E G C9/G
A strange new sound that makes boys explore
G Bm/F#
Tread neat so small those little feet, a-mid the morning his small heart beats.
F C/E G
So much excitement yesterday, must be rewarded, must be displayed
Am D Bm E4 E/D
Large hands lift him through the air. Excited eyes contain him there.
C G F D4 D
The eyes of those he loves and knows. But what's this extra bed just here?
G Bm/F#
His puzzled head tipped to one side. Amazement swims in those bright green eyes.
F C/E G
Glancing down upon this thing that makes strange sounds, strange sounds that sing
G Bm/F#
In those silent happy seconds that sur-round the sound of this event
F C/E G
a parent's smile is made in moments. They have made for you a friend.
Am D4 D Bm E4 E
And all you ever learned from them - until you grew much older
Am C G Bm/F# Em G7/F
Did not compare with when they said, This is your brand new bro - ther.
Cmaj9 D6 G D/F#
This is your brand new bro - ther.
Cmaj7/E D4 D G
This is your brand new bro - ther.
