Biografía:
Sam Cooke, cantante de soul y gospel nacido en Mississippi el 22 de enero de 1931. Está considerado uno de los pioneros de la música soul, siendo una de las grandes influencias del pop, el rhythm and blues y el neo soul.
Para algunos está considerado como «Rey del Soul» (título que comparte con Otis Redding), y con el paso del tiempo el hecho de que tuviera casi la treintena de hits entre 1957 y 1965 ha hecho a muchos pensar que realmente es uno de los padres del soul.

¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
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.

Intro: G Em7 X2
CHORUS:
G Em7
Sugar dumpling, you're my baby
Cadd9 G
I love you in every way
Em7
Sugar dumpling, you're my baby
Cadd9 G
My love grows stronger everyday, yeah
REPEAT CHORUS
G Em7
Listen, while I tell you a story
G Em7
A story about my girl
G Em7
I call her sugar dumpling
G Em7
Because she's the sweetest thing in this whole world
G Em7
Oh, whenever I'm feeling bad
G Em7
Right away she puts me to bed
G Cadd9
And she hires two nurses, one to hold my hand
D G
The other one to rub my head
CHORUS
G Em7
Oh, whenever I tell her, "Honey I'm hungry"
G Em7
Now go and fix me something to eat
G Em7
This girl rushes in the kitchen and fixes me a dinner
G Em7
With seven different kinds of meat
G Em7
If I call her up at two o'clock in the morning
G Em7
And say, "Come on over if you can"
G Cadd9
Before I hang up the telephone, she's sitting beside me
D G
With a cup of coffee in her hand
