First Time chords by Becca Mancari

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

🎸 Verse 1:

C              D             G                 C
I remember the first time my dad didn't hug me back
C     D                    G                C
Under porch lights with my sister's old cigarettes
C               D               G               C
With your hands hanging to your side and my face to your chest


🎸 Chorus 1:

             A
They say the heart grows stronger,
             C
But man it's hard to get back on track

🎸 Verse 2:

C              D            G                     C
I remember the first time I tried to tell you the truth
C           D             G                 C
On a Sunday drive with my heart stuck in my chest
C                 D              G         C
Would the God you love take that love so easily back?


🎸 Chorus 2:

             A
They say the heart grows stronger,
             C
But man it's hard to get back on track
             A
They say the heart grows stronger,
             C
But man it's hard to get back on track
