The First Time
Bob Neuwirth

INTRO:
G   F

C                                  G
The first time is the one time you think about forever
Bb                          F          C
When it dont last its the past you regret
C                   G              
As life goes on, it seems to grow harder
   Bb                       F          C
To remember the reasons you want to forget

C                            G
Sometimes the love is like a bitter sweet honey
Bb                          F            C
That sets the blood racing, reckless and wild
C                                    G
With the first touch of true love my heart starts reciting
    Bb                          F          C
The reason for two hearts to be beating in time

CHORUS
C                      Bb
And after all of these years
F                  C
After all of these endless years
C           G                          F          G    F      
You whisper in my ear Ill follow you anywhere

C                G       
Lovers memories are picture perfect
Bb               F        C
Nostalgic images aging in wine
C                 G
A lovers remorse turning to longing
    Bb                          F                 C
And fading old photographs that slide through the mind
 
C                               G
Sometimes our tongues taste the bitter sweet honey
     Bb                     F            C
That set our blood rocking, reckless and wild
C                                    G
With the first touch of hot love the truth fire decided
    Bb                         F          C
The reason our two hearts were beating in time

C                      Bb
And after all of these years
F                  C
After all of these wasted years
C           G                          F          G    F     C
You whisper in my ear Ill follow you anywhere

C                      Bb
And after all of these years
F                  C
After all of these endless years
C           G               C          F
You whisper in my ear Ill follow you anywhere.
F          C 
Follow you anywhere
