These are all the chords you will need. In brackets are alternative positions
which in some cases I think sound better.

B Emaj9
So I'm the first one in again
C#m9 B
with the quiet and the window growing snow.
B Emaj9
When I hear the furnace rouse itself
C#m9 B
From its slumber, somehow suddenly I know
Abaug5 Bb5 B2 Emaj9(2) E6 E *walk down
As my eye stops on one curled up in my lesson plan
Bbaug5 B
That I'm just your little ampersand
B Emaj9
When your voice springs from the intercom
C#m9 B
with announcements and reminders and a prayer
B Emaj9
I remember how you made me feel
C#m9 B
I was funny, I was thoughtful, I was rare
Abaug5 Bb5
But like the jokes about my figure
B2 Emaj9(2) E6 E
kids think I don't understand
Bbaug5 B
I know I'm just your little ampersand.
B Emaj9
After Christmas holidays
C#m9 B
you never asked to drive me home again
B Emaj9
Sometimes in the staff room I'd
C#m9 B
catch your eye with "why'd it have to end"
Abaug5 Bb5 B2 Emaj9(2) E6 E
But I know from how you worry at your wedding band
Bbaug5 B
That I'm just your little ampersand
