F A Dm
Bb C F

F             A               Dm
This is the first day of my life
Bb             C                 F
Swear I was born right in the doorway
F                   A                         Dm
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
                G7              C          C7
They're spreading blankets on the beach

F              A                 Dm
Yours is the first face that I saw
Bb             C              F
Think I was blind before I met you
F                    A                         Dm
Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
         G7              C     C7
But I know where I want to go

   F           C         Dm
So I thought I'd let you know
         Bb              C
That these things take forever
 F      C        Dm
I especially am slow
    Bbm                                                         F
But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home 


?????????????????????????????

F                A                  Dm
I remember the time you drove all night 
Bb         C              F
Just to meet me in the morning 
F                  A                            Dm
I thought it was strange, you said everything changed 
          G7                 C     C7
You felt as if you'd just woke up 

           F             A               Dm
And you said, "This is the first day of my life.
Bb                  C            F
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you.
F             A                       Dm
Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you,
      G7            C     C7
And I'd probably be happy."

        F         C       Dm
So if you want to be with me 
         Bb                 C
With these things there's no telling 
         F       C          Dm
We'll just have to wait and see
                Bbm                                              F
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery

          Bbm                                                      
Besides, maybe this time its different, I mean I really think you like me
