First Time

[Intro]
F      Dm      C    A#
......................

[Verse 1]
F      
Broke into the screened in porch
      
Now I’m crawling through the dog door

      Dm
I may let you see me on my knees

But you’ll never see me on all fours
F
Drooling on the tile

I’m a starfish on the kitchen floor
Dm
Catch my breath to breathe your name
                                       F
I am just the fool you took me for, uh huh

[Interlude]
F         Dm
..............

[Chorus]
           F                  
You can’t feel it for the first time a second time
          Dm               C             D#
You can’t feel it for the first time a second time

[Verse 2]
F
You gave me your hands

‘Cause you didn’t know what to do with them
    Dm
And I showed you the way

Even though I’d never been
F
Where did we go right?

I think about it all the time
          Dm
If I had paid closer attention
                                         F
Maybe I could take us back to ther? and then

[Interlude]
F         Dm
..............

[Chorus]
               F      
But you can’t feel it for the first time a second time
           Dm              C             D#
You can’t feel it for the first time a second time
        F
I can’t go before to who I was before I met you
         Dm             C                    D#
I can’t undo what I’ve done, and I wouldn’t want to
            Gm
I wouldn’t want to
           Am   A#
I wouldn’t want to

[Instrumental]
F    Dm    C
...............

[Verse 3]
          F
Sneaking out of the house

I must be out of my mind
             Dm
I’m running out of excuses

We’re running out of time
              F
You say that love will come and go

We’ll learn to ride the ebb and flow
               Dm
You’ll always leave before the light

Come back the same time and place the next night

[Chorus]
                A#
And how will I know
    F        Dm
If history repeats itself?
            A#
How will I know
           F                Dm
When it’s gonna come back around?

            A#
How will I know?
        F              Dm
Has my faced changed, baby?
            A#
How will I know?
           F                Dm        C         A#
I’ll stay ready for you to take me, take me, take me
      A#
Take me
