First Love
AmC/BC
I remember how we met
FG
but your name I forget
AmC/BCGE
like the door that I have kept unopened
AmC/BC
I remember it was wet
FG
and the swelt and the sweat
AmC/BCGE
and the shelter of the bed we we're clothed in
FC
You were stroking me like a pet
AmG
but you didn?t own me yet
FCG
and the tape in the cassette deck was choking
E
Spat out a broken hallelujah
ACCFGACCEAmC/BC
But I?ve seen the way the earth
FG
throws its aces with a curve
AmC/BC
You were waiting for the words
GE
to come to yer.
AmC/BCF
Just to say that you prefer to be lonely
G
to be cursed
AmC/BCGE
and to do the very worst you can do.
FC
Yeah I remember you like a verse
AmG
that I didn?t want to learn
FC
I just looked into your eyes
E
and I knew yer.
FC
Now the thought of you is burnt
AGFCE
on my body from the first time you did rewind that line from Hallelujah.
The original Leonard Cohen version.
AEAEACFCFC
Well I wish that I never met you that day
AmC
You said I have a room and music to play
FC
I have a room let me show you the way
AmC
I wish that I?d never come
FC
But now that I have, I would do it again
AmC
I would forget like I?d piss on a grave
FC
I would forget that I?d piss on a grave
AmCFC
and the words as they came to my tongue were hallelujah. Hallelujah!
AmC
And the sky was so much bluer
FC
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
AmC
And the world was so much newer.
F
You said I have a room
C
at the top of the stairs
AmG
I have a room with a view
FC
I know we all have a cross that we bear
AmGE
and I?d like to show it to you.
ACCFGACEBFC
And you left me in the light
AmG
and you met me in the light
FCE
and we only had a night between the two.
FC
You were waiting for the worst
AmG
You were listening for a curse
FCE
but the only thing I heard was hallelujah.
FC
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
AmC
And the sky was so much bluer
FC
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
AmC
And the world was so much newer.
F
you said I have a room
C
at the top of the stairs.
AmG
I have a room with a view.
FC
I know we all have a cross that we bear
AmG
and I?d like to give it to you.
FC
And I won?t forget how the sky was set
AmG
I said I have a place to go back to.
FC
La La La I will have you yet
AmG
I will carry you there if I have to.

No I won?t forget no I won?t
FCAmG
No I won?t forget no I won?t
FCE
No I won?t forget no.
