A I once had a love, D A true and lasting love, A But the fool in me, E Came out one night. A And with her loving eyes, D She saw right through my lies. A And she changed the night E A I stepped across the line. A I should've watched that first step. D It was a mighty big step. A E When i started stepping out of line. A Though she's still loving me, D It's not the way it used to be. A E A That first step did something to her mind. A I watched her slip away. D A little more everyday. A For my conscience E Couldn't live with all that shame. A Now she's growing colder D Since the day i told her. A And the love we had E A Will never be the same. Repeat chorus D A E Tag: That first step did something to her mind.
