Song: The First
Artist: Imperial Teen
Album: On (2002)


Someone oughta do a tab of the lead parts, but until I figure 'em out, this should do.
It appears to be just a straight-up two-chorder.


[Intro]

C...F...
C...F...
C...F...


[Verse 1]

    C
The first

       F
Is the best

        C
And the best

     F
Is a curse

    C
The taste

       F
Of the last

   C
Is sour

         F
But it's blessed...yes, it's blessed


[Chorus 1]

              C
It's the best that you did

              F
It's the best that you did

              C
It's the best that you did

              F
It's the best that you did


[Verse 2]

    C
The taste

       F
Of the past

     C
Is a curse

          F
That will last

        C
And the best

          F
When it's past

     C
Is a curse

       F
It's a curse...such a curse


[Chorus 1]


[Chorus 2]

              C
It's the best that you did

              F
It's the best that you did

              C
It's the best that you did

               F
It's the best, it's the best, it's the best, it's the best, it's the best


[Solo]

C...F...
C...F...


[Verse 3]

    C
The best

     F
Is a curse

    C
The best

     F
Is a curse

    C
The best

     F
Is a curse

    C
The best

     F
Is a curse

    C
The best...


[Coda]

F...and end on C
