Magic

D

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

G                        A         D
it sounded steady and it sounded 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                                 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

                                    Bm
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
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

        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
     G
the midwife let me cut the cord
    D
I've never felt love liek this before
   Bm                         G  A         D
as I announce you to the world;     it's a girl

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

          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
      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
