C             E               Am
This is the first day of my life
F             G                 C
Swear I was born right in the doorway
C                   E                         Am
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
                D7              G
They're spreading blankets on the beach

C              E                 Am
Yours is the first face that I saw
F             G              C
Think I was blind before I met you
C                    E                         Am
Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
         D7              G
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      G    Am
I especially am slow
    Dminsus2                                                    C
But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home 

G Am
Dminsus2 Fminsus2 

C                E                  Am
I remember the time you drove all night 
F         G              C
Just to meet me in the morning 
C                  E                            Am
I thought it was strange, you said everything changed 
          D7                 G
You felt as if you'd just woke up 

           C             E               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             E                   Am
Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you,
      D7            G
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       G       Am
We'll just have to wait and see
                Dminsus2                                               C
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery 

E Am

          Dminsus2                                                      C
Besides, maybe this time its different, I mean I really think you like me
