[E] Look at the two of [G#m] you dancing that way, _
[A] lost [E] in the moment, [F#m] in each [B] other's face. _
[E] So much in love, you're alone in this place, [A] like there's [E] nobody else in [B] the [B] world. _ _ _ _
[E] I was enough for [C#m] her, not long ago. _
[A] I was [E] her number one, [F#m] she told [B] me so.

So [A] be careful [E] when you hold my girl. _ _
[C#m] Time changes everything, [A] life must go on.
[E] I'm not gonna stand in [B] your way.

[B] _ And [F#m] I prayed that [E] she'd find you [A] someday.

[F#m] But it's still [E] hard to give her [B] away.
_ I [E] loved her _ _ _ first.
[C#m] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[E] How could that _ [C#m] beautiful woman with you, _

[E] The one that I read all [C#m] those fairy tales to, [A] and tucked in [E] to bed all [B] those nights. _
[C#m] And I knew the first time [A] I saw you with her, [E] it was only a matter [B] of time.
I loved [E] her first, I held [C#m] her first.
And a place in [A] my heart [E] will always [F#m] be hers.
