E             G#               C#m
This is the first day of my life
A             B                 E
Swear I was born right in the doorway
E                   G#                         C#m
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
                F#7              B
They're spreading blankets on the beach

E              G#                 C#m
Yours is the first face that I saw
A             B              E
Think I was blind before I met you
E                    G#                         C#m
Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
         F#7              B
But I know where I want to go

   E           B       C#m
So I thought I'd let you know
         A              B
That these things take forever
 E      E      C#m
I especially am slow
    Dm                                                          E
But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home
