Verse 1 chords:
C Am
My new lover, sweet and kind
F C
The kind of lover that one rarely finds
Am F G
And I'm happy for the first time, in a long time
C Am
Came along and opened up the door
F C
And though I know I've been in love before
Am F G
Oh I feel it, so much more, than the last time
Chorus 1 chords:
F C
And she only looks like you
F C
In a certain kind of light
F C G
When she holds her head just right
Verse 2: [use verse 1 chords]
Its been winter, for a while
The north winds wail cut like a baby child
It was hard to think or smile
That brings springtime
But it did and now it is
The green green grass
Is come up green and its
Feeling just the way it did
The very first time
Chorus 2: [use chorus 1 chords]
And she only looks like you
In a certain kind of light
When she holds her head just right

And anymore, it'd stretch the rhyme
F C
So let me leave this where I started, I'm
Am F
Just happy for the first time
