[Intro]
C F C Ddim7/C C Ddim7/C
[Verse 1]
C Ddim7/C C Ddim7/C
In middle fall when northern winds blow the clouds every which way
Dm C Dm C Dm
And the temperature is variable in the course of a shortened day
C B7 Am F
The ghost of summer lingers on in the dying rays of the sun
Dm C Dm C Dm
And winter waits to heap its snow upon us by the ton
Bb F Bb F
I jam a log into the stove and hasten to shut the door
Gdim7 Dm C G C
In the room upstairs sleeps a baby boy who wasn’t there before__, before
[Chorus]
F Am Dm
I love my kid, my baby, my boy
C F G C F Am Dm
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
C F G C
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
[Verse 2]
Ddim7/C C Ddim7/C
Who knows what this year will bring, for us just what’s in store
Dm C Dm C Dm
While the whistlepigs are bedded down beneath the woodshed floor
C B7 Am F
How many pounds the child will gain, the inches that he grows
Dm C Dm C Dm
Will depend upon the measure of the love that we show
Bb F Bb F
Chainsaws whine out in woods, the geese have taken flight
Gdim7 Dm C G C
And the daytime sounds of birds give way to coyotes in the night, the night
[Chorus]
F Am Dm
I love my kid, my baby, my boy
C F G C F Am Dm
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
C F G C
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
[Verse 3]
Ddim7/C C Ddim7/C
Once there were just two of us, now there’s another mouth to feed
Dm C Dm C Dm
And when he’s taken from the breast, can we meet his every need?
C B7 Am F
We filled our home with the toys and clothes to suit his every whim
Dm C Dm C Dm
And he’s filled our hearts with wondrous love that flows right back to him
Bb F Bb F
The young grass grows up through the old, the lilac lives again
Gdim7 Dm C G C
Upon a painted latticework, a little rose ascends, ascends
[Chorus] (fade to end)
F Am Dm
I love my kid, my baby, my boy
C F G C
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
Dm G C
I love my kid, my baby, my boy
C F G C
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
F C F Am Dm
I love my kid, (my baby, my boy)
C F G C F Am Dm
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy (my baby, my boy)
C F G C
Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
