This is the fi

            
rst day of my 

  
life
             
Swear I was bo

             
rn right in th

    
e doorway
             
I went out in 

            
the rain, sudd

              
enly everythin

     
g changed
              
They're spread

            
ing blankets o

    
n the beach

             
Yours is the f

            
irst face that

      
 I saw
             
Think I was bl

             
ind before I m

 
et you
             
Don't know whe

            
re I am, don't

              
 know where I'

     
ve been
            
But I know whe

           
re I want to g

o

             
So I thought I

        
'd let you kno

w
             
That these thi

          
ngs take forev

er
          
I especially a


m slow
      
But I realized

              
 how I need yo

              
u and I wonder

              
ed if I could 

        
come home 


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

             
I remember the

            
 time you drov

        
e all night 
            
Just to meet m

           
e in the morni

ng 
             
I thought it w

            
as strange, yo

              
u said everyth

       
ing changed 
            
You felt as if

              
 you'd just wo

 
ke up 

             
And you said, 

            
"This is the f

             
irst day of my


 life.
             
I'm glad I did

             
n't die before

     
 I met you.
             
Now I don't ca

            
re, I could go

       
 anywhere with

 you,
            
And I'd probab

      
ly be happy."

             
So if you want

         
 to be with me

 
             
With these thi

             
ngs there's no

 telling 
             
We'll just hav

         
e to wait and 


see
              
But I'd rather

      
 be working fo

              
r a paycheck t

              
han waiting to

              
 win the lotte

 
ry 

 

          
Besides, maybe

          
 this time its

              
 different, I 

              
mean I really
