For the First Time chords
Start Jamming...
[A] She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart
[G#] While I'm [D#] drinking Jack all alone in my local bar
And we don't [F#m] know how, how we got into this mad situation
[A] Only doing things out of [D] frustration
Trying to make her work, but man, these times are hard
She [A] needs me now, but I can't seem to find the time
I [G#m] got a new job [F#m] now on the unemployment line
And we don't know how, how we got into this mess
Is it God's [A] test?
Someone help us cause we're doing our [D] best
Trying to make her work, but man, these times are hard
But we're gonna [F#m] stop by drinking old cheap bottles of [D] wine
Shit talking up all [A] night
Saying things we haven't [E] for a while, a [F#m] while, yeah
We're smiling but we're close to [D] tears
Even after all these [A] years
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting [E] for the [A] first time
[D] She's
[A] in line at the door with her head held high
But [B] I just lost my [F#m] job and didn't lose my fly
And we both know how, how we're [A] gonna make it work
When it hurts when you pick yourself up
You get kicked to the [D] dirt
Trying to make her work, but man, these times are hard
But [A] we're gonna stop [F#m] by drinking old cheap bottles of [D] wine
Shit talking [A] up all night
Doing things we haven't for a while, a while, yeah
[F#m] We're smiling but we're close to [D] tears
Even after all these [A] years
We just now got the feeling that we're [E] meeting for the [A] first time
[D] Drinking
[F#m] old cheap bottles of [D] wine
Shit talking up [A] all night
Saying things we haven't for [E] a while
[F#m] We're smiling but we're close [A] to [D] tears
Even after all these years
[A] We just now got the feeling that [E] we're meeting for the first [A] time
[E]
[A] Just
[D] now got the feeling that we're [A] meeting for the first time
Making us [E] crazy, don't give up on me baby
[F#m] [A] All these times are hard
Yeah, they're making [D] us crazy
Don't give up on me [A] baby
All these times are hard
Yeah, they're making us [E] crazy
Don't give up on me baby
[F#m] All these times are hard
Yeah, they're making us crazy
Don't [D] give up on me baby
