[intro]
D
[verse 1]
Dthe waters broke and we Bmheaded to the hospital
Ghoping this would be the day we'd Afinally get to meet you
Dwe were excited Bmand we were nervous
Gyour mum was so calm, AI put on my bravest face
as tDhey hooked up a machBmine to listen to your heartbeat
Ga sound that i would not forget, in fAact i can still hear it
[verse 2]
Git sounded steady and it Asounded stDrong
Dthe contractions started Bmoff like waves
Bmturned into a giant storm
Gsuddenly we're lost at sea iAn a little fishing boat
youDr mother swam to shore, climbed a Bmmountain and ran a marathon
GI stood on the sideline Aoffering encouragement
Dthe midwife was a shining light Bmthrough the tunnels and the caves
Gto think I thought I was prepAared to Dwitness how a life was made
[verse 3]
and then somewhere around midnight, Bmthey said that something wasn't right
Gdeclared it an emergency anAd said they'd need to operate
Gthe room sped up the world slowed down
and mDan i was scared
as Bmwe stepped in the theatre
Gmagic filled the Dair
[verse 4]
then you Garrived and i cAried
Dyour whole life flashed bBmefore my eyes
comGpletely overwhelmed i was Apetrified
'til the Gdoctor said you and your Amum were alright
the mGidwife let me cut the cord
I've Dnever felt love liek this before
as BmI announce you to the worldG;     Ait's a Dgirl
[verse 5]
Dand the first time that i saw you felt like BmI already knew you
it was lGike i'd always known you like you'd aAlways been here
Dthe first time that i held you it Bmfelt like i could hear you
comGmunicate with you without maAking a sound
because a nDew day had just begun and Bmyou had brought so much with it
and nGow we're sitting in a cloud with Ayou wrapped in a blanket
your moDther held you in her arms I kBmnew that we would be ok
tGhis is all that matters now, nAow we are a familyD  
[verse 6]
oh you arrGived, changed my lAife
Dnever have i ever felt tBmhis alive
you've gGot that familiar loDok in your Aeye
I'll tGell you now that you're a lucky girl
you've Dgot the best mum in the whole world
and I lovBme her even more
after witGnessing yAour birDth

[intro]

[verse 1]

D Bm

the waters broke and we headed to the hospital

G A

hoping this would be the day we'd 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

a sound that i would not forget, in fact i can still hear it

[verse 2]

G A D

it sounded steady and it sounded strong

D Bm

the contractions started off like waves

turned into a giant storm

G A

suddenly we're lost at sea in a little fishing boat

D Bm

your mother swam to shore, climbed a mountain and ran a marathon

G A

I stood on the sideline offering encouragement

D Bm

the midwife was a shining light through the tunnels and the caves

G A D

to think I thought I was prepared to witness how a life was made

[verse 3]

and then somewhere around midnight, they said that something wasn't right

G A

declared it an emergency and said they'd need to operate

the room sped up the world slowed down

and man i was scared

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 A

'til the doctor said you and your mum were alright

the midwife let me cut the cord

I've never felt love liek this before

Bm G A D

as I announce you to the world; it's a girl

[verse 5]

D Bm

and the first time that i saw you felt like I already knew you

G A

it was like i'd always known you like you'd always been here

D Bm

the first time that i held you it felt like i could hear you

G A

communicate with you without making a sound

D Bm

because a new day had just begun and you had brought so much with it

G A

and now we're sitting in a cloud with you wrapped in a blanket

D Bm

your mother held you in her arms I knew that we would be ok

G A D

this is all that matters now, now 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 A

you've got that familiar look in your eye

I'll tell you now that you're a lucky girl

you've got the best mum in the whole world

and I love her even more

G A D

after witnessing your birth
