C E Am
This is the first day of my life
F G C
Swear I was born right in the doorway
C E Am
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
D7 G
They're spreading blankets on the beach
C E Am
Yours is the first face that I saw
F G C
Think I was blind before I met you
C E Am
Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
D7 G
But I know where I want to go
C G Am
So I thought I'd let you know
F G
That these things take forever
C C/B Am
I especially am slow
Dminadd9 C
But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home

C E Am
I remember the time you drove all night
F G C
Just to meet me in the morning
C E Am
I thought it was strange, you said everything changed
D7 G
You felt as if you'd just woke up
C E Am
And you said, "This is the first day of my life.
F G C
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you.
C E Am
Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you,
D7 G
And I'd probably be happy."
C G Am
So if you want to be with me
F G
With these things there's no telling
C C/B Am
We'll just have to wait and see
Dminadd9 C
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery
B7 Am7
Dminadd9 C
Besides, maybe this time its different, I mean I really think you like me
