[G] Peering out her tiny [Bm] eyes, the grubby hands that grip the [F] rail
Wipe the window clean of [C] frost [Em] as the morning [C] air [G] laid on the latch
A whistle awakens someone [Bm] there, next door to the nursery just down the [F] hall
A strange new sound you've never heard [C] before, a strange new sound
That [G] makes boys explore
Treadneath so small, those little [F#] feet, amid the [Bm] morning his small heart [F] beats
So much excitement yesterday, [Em] that must be [C] rewarded, [G] must be displayed
[Am] Large [D] hands lift him through the air, [Bm] excited [E] eyes contain him there
[C] The eyes of those [G] he loves and
[F] But what's this [D] extra bed just here?
[G] His puzzled head tipped to one [Bm] side, amazement swims in those bright green [F] eyes
Glancing down upon this thing [Em] that makes strange [C] sounds, [G] strange sounds that sing
In those silent, happy [Bm] seconds that surround the sound of this event
[F] A parent's smile is made in [C] moments they have [G] made for you, a friend
[Am] And all you [D] ever learn from them, [Bm] until you grew [E] much older
[Am] Then I'd come here [C] and they'd say
[G] This [Bm] is your brand [Em] new brother

This is your brand new brother
