   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

  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

                    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

  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

                     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

  F    Am Dm
I love my kid, my baby, my boy

Bundle of sorrow, bundle of joy
