This [Eb] is the first day of [Abm] my life,
[E] swear I [Db] was born [Gb] right in [B] the doorway.
I went out in [Eb] the rain, suddenly everything [Abm] changed, they're spreading [Db] blankets on [Gb] the beach.
[B] Here's the [Eb] first face that [Abm] I saw,
[E] swear I was [Gb] blind before I [B] met you.
Now I don't know where I am, I don't know where [Abm] I've been, but I know [Db] where I want to [Gb] go.
So [B] I thought I'd let [Abm] you know, that [E] these things take [Gb] forever, [B] I especially [Abm] am slow.
[Bb] But I realized that I need you, and I wondered if I could [B] come home.

[B] Remember the [Eb] time you drove [Abm] all night,
[E] just [Gb] to meet me in [B] the morning.
And I thought it [Eb] was strange, you said everything [Abm] changed, you felt [Db] as if you'd just woke [Gb] up.
And you [B] said, this is [Eb] the first day of my [Abm] life, [E] I'm glad I didn't [Gb] die before I [B] met you.
Now I [Eb] don't care, I could go [Abm] anywhere with you, and [Db] I'd probably be [Gb] happy, so [B] if you
want to be [Abm] with me.
But [E] these things [Gb] there's no telling, we [B] just have [Gb] to wait [Abm] and see.
But [E] I'd rather be working [Eb] for a paycheck, than wait to end [E] the [B] lottery.

Besides [Bb] maybe this time it's different, I mean I really think you like me.
