Bright Eyes – First Day Of My Life (Ukulele)

C            E7               Am
This is the first day of my life

F             G                 C
Swear I was born right in the doorway

C                  E7                         Am
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed

                  D7               G
They're spreading blankets on the beach

C             E7                 Am
Yours is the first face that I saw

F             G              C
Think I was blind before I met you

C                         E7                           Am
And I don't know where I am, I don't know where I've been

           D7               G
But I know where I want to go

         C           G         Am
And so I thought I'd let you know

            F              G
Yeah, these things take forever

   C      E7     Am
I especially am slow

      Dmadd9                                                   C
But I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home

C             E7                  Am
Remember the time you drove all night

F         G              C
Just to meet me in the morning?

C                     E7                            Am
And I thought it was strange, you said everything changed

            D7                  G
You felt as if you'd just woke up

             C             E7                Am
And you said, "This is the first day of my life.

F                   G            C
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you.

C                E7                   Am
But now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you,

        D7              G
And I'd probably be happy."

          C     G        Am
So if you wanna be with me

           F                 G
With these things there's no telling

        C       E7        Am
We just have to wait and see

                  Dmadd9
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery

             Dmadd9                                                      C
Besides, maybe this time it's different, I mean I really think you like me
