Sugar Dumpling – Sam Cooke
Nghệ sĩ: Sam Cooke
Hợp Âm Chuẩn
One of my favourite Sam Cooke songs. This is my interpretation of the song and I play it
with a similar strumming technique to that on Wonderful World, also by Sam Cooke.
I play it with the capo on the 3rd, but that's just because I like singing it at that pitch.
Any suggestions for change are welcomed! Otherwise, enjoy. The song isn't too difficult
and an absolute belter to sing along too.

Listen, while I tell you a story
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
A story about my girl
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
I call her sugar dumpling
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
Because she's the sweetest thing in this whole world
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
Oh, whenever I'm feeling bad
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
Right away she puts me to bed
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
And she hires two nurses, one to hold my hand
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The other one to rub my head
CHORUS
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
Oh, whenever I tell her, "Honey I'm hungry"
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
Now go and fix me something to eat
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
This girl rushes in the kitchen and fixes me a dinner
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
With seven different kinds of meat
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
If I call her up at two o'clock in the morning
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch
And say, "Come on over if you can"
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Before I hang up the telephone, she's sitting beside me
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
With a cup of coffee in her hand
