Verse 1:
F#m
Good times they come and they go
F#m
Never going to know
Bm
What fate is going to blow
Bm
Your way just hope that it feels right
F#m
Sometimes it comes and it goes
F#m
You take it ever so slow
Bm
And then you lose it,
Bm
and then it flows right to you
F#m
So we rely on the past
F#m
And special moments that last
Bm
Were they as tender
Bm
As we dare to remember
F#m
Such a fine time as this
F#m
What could equal the bliss
Bm
The thrill of the first kiss
Bm
It'll blow right to you

Chorus:
F#m             Bm
It's never... as good as the first time...
F#m             Bm
It's never... as good as the first time...
  (Never as good as the first time)

Verse 2:
F#m
Good times they come and they go
F#m
Never going to know
Bm
It's like the weather, one day
Bm
chicken next day feathers
F#m
The rose we remember
F#m
The thorns we forget
Bm
We'd love and leave
Bm
We never spend a minute on regret
F#m
It is a possibility
F#m
The more we know the less we see
Bm
Second time
Bm
is not quite what it seemed
F#m
Natural as the way
F#m
We came to be
Bm
The second time
Bm
won't live up to the dream

Chorus:
F#m            Bm
It's never as good as the first time

Never as good as the first time
  (never as good as the first time)
