And this [G#] is the first day [C#m] of my life, [E] I swear I was born right in the doorway.
[G#] When out in the rain [C#m] suddenly everything changed, they are spreading,
[F#] It's blackest, blackest on the beach.
[E] [G#] And yours is the first [C#m] face that I saw, [E] I swear I was blind before I met you.
Don't [G#] know where I am, I don't [C#m] know where I've been, but I [E] know [F#] where, yeah where I [E] wanna go.
So I thought I'd let [C#m] you know, [E] that these things take forever, I especially [C#m] am slow.
But [E]
I realized that I [B] need you and I wondered [E] if you would come home.

Remember the time we [C#m] drove all night,
[A] just [B] to meet me [E] in the morning.
You [G#m] said it was strange, you said [C#m] everything changed, you [F#] felt as if, as if you [B] just woke up.
[E] And you said, well this [G#] is the first day [C#m] of our lives, [A] I'm glad [E] I didn't die before I [E] met you.
Cause now I don't care, [C#m] I could go anywhere with you.
[F#] I'd probably, I'd probably be [B] happy, but if you wanna [C#m] be with me.
With [A] these things there's [E] no telling, we'll just have to [C#m] wait and see.
I'd rather be [A] working for a paycheck [B] than be hoping for the [E] lottery.
[C#m] But this [A] time I think it's different, [B] I really think you [E] like me.
