[Intro]
C - E7 - Am
F - G - C
C E7 Am
This is the first day of my life
F G C
Swear I was born right in the doorway
C E7 Am
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
*D7 (strum once) G G7
They're spreading blankets on the beach
C E7 Am
Yours is the first face that I saw
F G C
Think I was blind before I met you
C E7 Am
Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
*D7 (strum once) G G7
But I know where I want to go
C G Am
So I thought I'd let you know
F G
That these things take forever
C C/B Am
I especially am slow
Dsus2/F
But I realized how I need you
F7sus2 Fsus2 C
and I wondered if I could come home
G - Am - Dsus2/F - F7sus2 - Fsus2
C E7 Am
I remember the time you drove all night
F G C
Just to meet me in the morning
C E7 Am
I thought it was strange, you said everything changed
*D7 (strum once) G G7
You felt as if you'd just woke up
C E7 Am
And you said, This is the first day of my life
F G C
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you.
C E7 Am
Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you,
D7 G G7
And I'd probably be happy
C G Am
So if you want to be with me
F G
With these things there's no telling
C C/B Am
We'll just have to wait and see
Dsus2/F
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
F7sus2 Fsus2 C
than waiting to win the lottery
E7 - Am
Dsus2/F
Besides, maybe this time its different,
F7sus2 Fsus2 C
I mean I really think you like me
E7 - Am
Dsus2/F - F7sus2 - Fsus2
C - E7 - Am
Dsus2/F - F7sus2 - Fsus2
*C (End with C chord)
