[Gb] _ This affection [Db] I feel is [Ebm] hard to _ [Db] understand
_ It's [B] not the way I [Gb] planned
My [B] world is changing
[Db] _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ Wherever [Db] I turn, [Ebm] it's his face I [Db] see _
[B] Looking back at [Gb] _ me
And [B] in my eyes I [Db] can't disguise _ _
[Gb] The [Db] affection [Ebm] I [Gb] _
[B] feel
Is getting [Db] the better [Gb] of _ me
_ Oh, [B] for the first [Db] time
It's [Gb] not a dream
_ Oh, [B] for the first time
[Db] It [Gb] seems so real that [Db] I want to [Ebm] remember
[Gb] _ [B] Every _ _ [Bbm] moment _ _
[B] That I'm there _ [Bbm] beside him
And he [Abm] _ gently [Db] _ takes my hand

_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ So here [Eb] I am feeling [Fm] things I've never _ [Eb] felt
And [Db] all because [Ab] of him
My [Db] world is changing
She's turned [Eb] my whole world [Ab] upside down
Everything [Eb] that I do, I do [Fm] to catch his [Eb] eye
Oh, and [Db] I won't _ _ [Ab] deny
I stand [Db] here guilty
I wonder [Eb] if she [Ab] feels the same as I do
[Eb] This affection [Fm] _ [Ab] I [Db] feel
Has gotten [Eb] the better [Ab] of me
_ _ So [Db] for the first [Eb] time
Can [Ab] this _ _ [Cm] be love?
Oh, [Db] for the _ _ [Eb] first time
I know [Ab] it's real
[Eb] And with [Fm] him I [Ab] feel [Db] so _ completely
[Cm] _ _
_ _ [Db] _ Uniquely [Cm] like _ no other
[Db] As he gently _ [Eb] _
holds me [Ab] _ _ _ close _
_ _ [B] But [Gb] wait a minute, [Abm] what am [E] I saying?
[Ebm] I never, I [B] never thought [E] on a scale [Gb] so grand
[B] But [Gb] these emotions [Abm] racing [E] through [Ebm] me
Tell [B] me I [E] must, tell [Ab] me I can
I've never felt these things [Bb] I'm finding
_ Who I _ am has bought [Eb] me a [F]
sign
I _ [Bb] have no doubt
This thing [Dm] she's taught
But for [F] the [Eb] first [F] time I _ [Bb] _ understand
Try to [Dm] understand
Yes, [Eb] for the first [F] time I [Bb] realize
[F] That [Gm] all the things they
[Eb] Said would _ _ _
[Dm] happen
_ [Eb] Well, they're happening _
