Song For Sammy Ukulele chords by Missy Higgins

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:
            A
This is the first time
                               Gmaj7sus2          A
That I've ever loved anything more than life itself
                               Gmaj7sus2
I never knew my heart could expand to this size



              A
This is the first time
                                 Gmaj7sus2
That I've ever jumped out of my head and left it behind
       A                                 Gmaj7sus2
And I don't think that I wanna rush back inside

Chorus:
           Esus4            F#m                 D
How can it be his little hands grew inside of me?
         Esus4                   A
I never made anything so perfectly


Verse 2:
              A
This is the first time
                               Gmaj7sus2              A
That I've ever seen beauty in dust caught by the sunlight
                          Gmaj7sus2
Falling around us in the quiet

               A
This is the first time
                             Gmaj7sus2                          A
That I haven't been able to keep out all of the pain that goes on
                                   Gmaj7sus2
'Cause every man now is somebody's son


Chorus:
           Esus4             F#m                D
How can it be those little toes grew inside of me?
        Esus4                    A
I never made anything so perfectly


Bridge:
             Dm                   A
Oh, but the nightmares, they don't stop
               Dm
The ones where I can't find you
                               A   Asus4  A
Or I've left you alone in the dark
             D
And I run, screaming
                               F#m               D
Shouting, "Where is my baby? Where has my baby gone?"
              Esus4                     A
Without him, I simply could never go on


Verse 4:
             A
This is the end
                            Gmaj7sus2     A
And also the beginning of everything we are
                                    Gmaj7sus2
We were one, then two, now we are three


Chorus:
           Esus4            F#m                D
How can it be his little heart grew inside of me?
                    Esus4              F#m   Gmaj7sus2
There's so much to lose now, it's terrifying
                   Esus4                      A
But look what we made, isn't he just perfect?
