F G C

C E7 Am7
This is the first day of my life
F G C
Swear I was born right in the doorway
C E7 Am7
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
D7 G
They're spreading blankets on the beach

C E7 Am7
Yours is the first face that I saw
F G C
Think I was blind before I met you
C E7 Am7
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 Am7
So I thought I'd let you know
F G
That these things take forever
C C/B Am7
I especially am slow
Dminsus2 C
But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home

(Esus4, amin7, Dminsus2, amin-maj7, amin (with pinky finger on the High E)

C E7 Am7
I remember the time you drove all night
F G C
Just to meet me in the morning
C E7 Am7
I thought it was strange, you said everything changed
D7 G
You felt as if you'd just woke up

C E7 Am7
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 E7 Am7
Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you,
D7 G
And I'd probably be happy."

C G Am7
So if you want to be with me
F G
With these things there's no telling
C C/B Am7
We'll just have to wait and see
Dminsus2 C
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery

Esus4 Am7

Dminsus2 C Esus4 Am7
Besides, maybe this time its different, I mean I really think you like meeeee

Dminsus2 amin-maj7, amin (with pinky finger on the High E)

C, Esus4, Am7, Dminsus2 amin-maj7, amin (with pinky finger on the High E)

End on C

This is the PROPER way to play this

However, you can use E major chords in place of E7, and am in place of Amin7

Key of Actual song is E, but played in the C position Capo 4
