![[My Little Hammer.mp3]] **Key:** G Major **Time Signature:** 4/4 **Mood:** Joyful, playful, and heart warming **[Verse 1]** In the forge where sparks do fly, I saw her first, that gleam in her eye. Her hammer swung with grace so fine, And I knew one day, she’d be mine. **[Chorus]** Oh, my little hammer, strong and true, No mountain’s tall enough to keep me from you. With every swing, my heart does sing, Oh, my little hammer, you’re my everything. **[Verse 2]** He’s a mountain tall, with hands of stone, But his gentle touch is all I’ve known. Together we build, from dawn till night, And in his arms, the world feels right. **[Chorus]** Oh, my little hammer, strong and true, No mountain’s tall enough to keep me from you. With every swing, my heart does sing, Oh, my little hammer, you’re my everything. **[Bridge]** Together we forge a life so bright, Iron and love in the firelight. Though I’m big and you’re so small, Our love’s the strongest forge of all. **[Chorus]** Oh, my little hammer, strong and true, No mountain’s tall enough to keep me from you. With every swing, my heart does sing, Oh, my little hammer, you’re my everything. [Outro] The sparks may fade, the iron may cool, But our love’s a flame, steadfast and true. Through every swing, through every storm, You’re my little hammer, my heart so warm. --- ### **[Verse 1: The First Swing]** *(Chords: G - D - C - G)* | **G** | **D** | **C** | **G** | In the forge where sparks do fly, | **G** | **D** | **C** | **G** | I saw her first, that gleam in her eye. | **C** | **G** | **D** | **Em** | Her hammer swung with grace so fine, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | And I knew one day, she’d be mine. --- ### **[Chorus: My Little Hammer]** *(Chords: G - C - D - G)* | **G** | **C** | **D** | **G** | Oh, my little hammer, strong and true, | **G** | **C** | **D** | **G** | No mountain’s tall enough to keep me from you. | **C** | **G** | **D** | **Em** | With every swing, my heart does sing, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | Oh, my little hammer, you’re my everything. --- ### **[Verse 2: The Gnome’s Reply]** *(Chords: C - G - D - G)* | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | He’s a mountain tall, with hands of stone, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | But his gentle touch is all I’ve known. | **C** | **G** | **D** | **Em** | Together we build, from dawn till night, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | And in his arms, the world feels right. --- ### **[Chorus: My Little Hammer]** *(Repeat with harmonies)* | **G** | **C** | **D** | **G** | Oh, my little hammer, strong and true, | **G** | **C** | **D** | **G** | No mountain’s tall enough to keep me from you. | **C** | **G** | **D** | **Em** | With every swing, my heart does sing, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | Oh, my little hammer, you’re my everything. --- ### **[Bridge: Two Hammers, One Beat]** *(Chords: Em - C - G - D)* | **Em** | **C** | **G** | **D** | Together we forge a life so bright, | **Em** | **C** | **G** | **D** | Iron and love in the firelight. | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | Though I’m big and you’re so small, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | Our love’s the strongest forge of all. --- ### **[Chorus: My Little Hammer]** *(Final chorus, joyous and full of life)* | **G** | **C** | **D** | **G** | Oh, my little hammer, strong and true, | **G** | **C** | **D** | **G** | No mountain’s tall enough to keep me from you. | **C** | **G** | **D** | **Em** | With every swing, my heart does sing, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | Oh, my little hammer, you’re my everything. --- ### **[Outro: Love in the Forge]** *(Chords: G - D - C - G)* | **G** | **D** | **C** | **G** | The sparks may fade, the iron may cool, | **G** | **D** | **C** | **G** | But our love’s a flame, steadfast and true. | **C** | **G** | **D** | **Em** | Through every swing, through every storm, | **C** | **G** | **D** | **G** | You’re my little hammer, my heart so warm. --- This song is playful, joyful, and celebrates the unlikely and heartfelt romance between a Goliath and a gnome.
