Intro: G Am C D (repeat)
G
There?s something sacred when your 17
Em
?Bout a football jacket and a high school ring
C D
And it sure looked nice when you wore mine
G
That late October at the homecoming dance
Em
We slipped outside and we took a chance
C D
In the middle of the night it sure felt right
Am B D
We let go right then and there
Am B F
We were loved and we were scared
(Chorus:)
G Am
For the first time
C D
Lovin? blind we dove right in
G Am
For the first time
C D
We gave everything and then
Em D C
Graduation came
Em D C
And our dreams called our names
Am B D
With broken hearts we moved on with our lives
G Am C D G Am C D
For the first ti----------me
Well I heard the other day
You?re a Sunday school teacher
Got the PTA, got a real good life
You?re a real good wife
I?m living in this circus world
No I ain?t married but I got a girl
And I?m her man and we?re making plans
But I still smile when I think of us
Together we learned how to love
For the first time
Lovin? blind we dove right in
For the first
We gave everything and then
Graduation came
And our dreams called our names
With broken hearts we moved on with our lives
For the first time
Solo: G Am C D (repeat)
Graduation came
And our dreams called our names
With broken hearts we moved on with our lives
For the first time
For the first time
Lovin? blind we dove right in
For the first time
We gave everything and then
For the first time
We moved on with our lives
For the first time
