C C E7 E7 Am Am F F G7 G7

C C E7 E7 Am Am
This is the first day of my life
F F G7 G7 C C
Swear I was born right in the doorway
C C E7 E7 Am Am
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
D7 D7 G G
They're spreading blankets on the beach


C C E7 E7 Am Am
Yours is the first face that I saw
F F G7 G7 C C
I think I was blind before I met you
C C E7 E7
Now I don't know where I am
Am Am
I don't know where I've been
D7 D7 G G G7 G7
But I know where I want to go


C C E7 E7 Am Am
And so I thought I'd let you know
F F G G
That these things take forever
C C Am Am
I especially am slow
F F
But I realize that I need you
G7 G7 C C E7 E7 Am Am F F G7 G7 C C
And I wondered if I could come home


C C E7 E7 Am Am
Remember the time you drove all night
F F G7 G7 C C
Just to meet me in the morning
C C E7 E7 Am Am
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
F F G G G7 G7
You felt as if you'd just woke up


C C E7 E7 Am Am
And you said "this is the first day of my life
F F G7 G7 C C
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
C C E7 E7 Am Am
But now I don't care I could go anywhere with you
F F G G G7 G7
And I'd probably be happy"


C C E7 E7 Am Am
So if you want to be with me
F F G G
With these things there's no telling
C C G G Am Am
We just have to wait and see
F F
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
G7 G7 C C E7 E7 Am Am
Than waiting to win the lottery
F F
Besides maybe this time is different
G7 G7 C C E7 E7 Am Am F F G7 G7 C C*
I mean I really think you like me

I think it sounds better in the first verse when the E7 comes right at 'rain' and the Am comes after 'everything' right before 'changed'.

Other than that this tab is perfect!!! Thanks so much!
