[G#] [C#m]

[G#] [C#m]
[A] [B] [E]
This [D#] is the first day of [C#m] my life,
[A] swear I [B] was born right in [E] the doorway.
I went out [G#] in the rain, suddenly [C#m] everything changed, they're spreading [F#] blankets on the [B] beach.
[E] Yours is [G#] the first face that [C#m] I saw, [A] I think I [B] was blind before [E] I met you.
And I don't know where [G#] I am, I don't know where [C#m] I've been, but I know [F#] where I want to [B] go.
And so I [B] thought I'd let [C#m] you know, yeah [A] these things take [B] forever, I especially [C#m] am slow.
[F#m] But I realized that I need you, and I wondered if I could [E] come home.
[D#] [C#m]
[F#] [Am]
[E] Remember [G#] the time you drove [C#m] all night,
[A] just [B] to meet me in [E] the morning.
And I thought it [G#] was strange you said everything [C#m] changed, you felt [F#] as if you'd just woke [B] up.
And you [E] said, this [G#] is the first day of [C#m] my life, [A] I'm glad I [B] didn't die before [E] I met you.
But now I [G#] don't care, I could go [C#m] anywhere with you, and [F#] I'd probably be [B] happy.
So if [E] you wanna be [C#m] with me, [A] these things there's [B] no telling, we [E] just have to [C#m] wait and see.
But [F#m] I'd rather be working [F#] for a paycheck, than waiting to win the [E] lottery.
[D#] [C#m]
Besides, [F#m] maybe this time it's different, I mean I really think you'll [E] like me.
