[Intro]
E G#7 C#m A B E 2x
[Verse 1]
E G#7 C#m
This is the first day of my life
A B E
Swear I was born right in the doorway
E G#7 C#m
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
F#7 B B7
They're spreading blankets on the beach
E G#7 C#m
Yours is the first face that I saw
A B E
Think I was blind before I met you
E G#7 C#m
Now I don't know where I am, I don't know where I've been
F#7 B B7
But I know where I want to go
[Chorus]
E B C#m
And so I thought I'd let you know
A B
That these things take forever
E E/D# C#m
I especially am slow
F#sus2 E
But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
E G#7 C#m
Remember the time you drove all night
A B E
Just to meet me in the morning
E G#7 C#m
And I thought it was strange, you said everything changed
F#7 B B7
You felt as if you'd just woke up
E G#7 C#m C#m7
And you said this is the first day of my life
A B E
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
E G#7 C#m
But now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you
F#7 B B7
And I'd probably be happy
[Chorus]
E B C#m
So if you want to be with me
A B
With these things there's no telling
E E/D# C#m
We just have to wait and see
F#sus2
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
E
Than waiting to win the lottery
G# C#m
F#sus2
Besides, maybe this time it's different,
E
I mean I really think you like me
