0:21 This is the first day of my life; swear I was born right in the doorway.

0:30 I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed; they're spreading blankets on the beach.

G | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
D | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
A | ------------2--- | 4--------------- | ---------------- | 2--------------- |

0:40 Yours is the first face that I saw; I think I was blind before I met you.

D | 2-------1------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | 2--------------- |
A | ---------------- | 4--------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
E | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |

0:51 I don't know where I am, I don't know where I've been, but I know where I want to go.

G | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
D | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | --------1---4--- |
A | ------------2--- | 4--------------- | ---------------- | 2---4----------- |
E | --------4------- | ---------------- | 2--------------- | ---------------- |

1:00 So I thought I'd let you know, (yeah) these things take forever; I especially am slow

G | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
D | 2--------------- | ---------------- | --------2------- | ---------------- |
A | ----2---4------- | ---------------- | 2--------------- | 4--------------- |
E | ---------------- | --------5------- | ------------4--- | ---------------- |

1:11 But I realize that I need you, and I wonder if I could come home.

A | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | 4--------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |

1:27 Remember the time you drove all night just to meet me in the morning?

A | ---------------- | 4-------------2- | 0-------2------- | ------------2--- |
E | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | --------4------- |

1:37 And I thought it was strange; you said everything changed. You felt as if you just woke up. And you said...

G | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
D | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | --------4------- |
A | --------------2- | 4--------------- | ---------------- | 2--------------- |
E | 0-------4------- | --------------4- | 2--------------- | ---------------- |

1:47 This is the first day of my life. I'm glad I didn't die before I met you.

G | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
D | 2-------1------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | 2--------------- |
A | ---------------- | 4--------------- | 0-------2------- | --------2------- |
E | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ------------4--- |

1:57 But now I don't care. I could go anywhere with you, and I'd prob'ly be happy.

G | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
D | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | --------4------- |
A | ---------------- | 4--------------- | ---------------- | 2--------------- |
E | 0-------4------- | ------------4--- | 2--------------- | ---------------- |

2:07 So if you wanna be, with these things there's no telling; we just have to wait and see.

G | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |
D | 2--------------- | ---------------- | --------2------- | ---------------- |
A | ----2---4------- | --------0------- | 2-----------0--- | 4--------------- |
E | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- |

2:18 But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than trying to win the lottery.
