Intro: (Single note)
F Dm Bb C
How well I remember my very first love affair.
F Dm Bb C
Those juvenile fantasies and innocent dreams we shared.
Gm Gm7 F Dm
But we're too blind to realize that we are totally unprepared
Bb C F
For the first time we fall in love.
F Dm Bb C
We think it's forever, the first time we fall in love.
F Dm Bb C
We always treasure the first time we fall in love.
Gm Gm7
Those other romances come and go,
F Dm
But we cherish the memory of
Bb C F
The first time we fall in love.
C D C A Bb C
F Dm
First love can be such a strain.
Gm Em
It can rule your head, it can bring you pain,
F Dm
And when it ends it seems such a shame.
Bb C F
The first time we fall in love,
Dm Gm
Can make you sad, it can keep you awake,
Em
It can drive you mad.
F Dm
People say you're too young and it's only a fad
Bb C F Am
The first time we fall in love.
Bb C F F Em
The first time we fall in love.
Dm Bb Bb C
The first time I fell out of love, it knocked me through the floor.
Dm Bb Bb Am
My world came crashing down, it shook me to the core.
Gm
I was unprepared 'cos I was only a kid
F Am
And I was much too young and I wasn't equipped
Dm Bb Dm C C C C
For the emotional pressures and stresses of it.
F Dm
But oh, I'll never forget
Gm Em
The way that she looked the first time we met.
F Dm
Time goes by but we never forget
Bb C F
The first time we fall in love.
Dm Bb Bb C
Love can be exciting, it can be a bloody bore.
Dm Bb Bb Am
Love can be a pleasure or nothing but a chore.
Gm
Love can be like a dull routine,
F Am
It can run you around till you're out of steam.
Dm Bb Dm C C C C
It can treat you well, it can treat you mean,
F Dm
Love can mess you around,
Gm Em
I can pick you up, it can bring you down.
F Dm
But they'll never know The feelings we show
Bb C F Am
The first time we fall in love.
Bb C F
The first time we fall in love.
