First Love

on valentine's day we saw 50 first dates
man.. we used to hang out all the time
what ever happened to that?
what ever happened?

well... i guess eighth grade really wasn't
the time to be having such
serious relationships
man... i should of known

but now, every time i
see you, i think of then and
i wonder what things might have been like
hadn't i gone and [Bm]broke of this
relationship with you
would we still be [Am]together?
hmm... well... probably not
but anyway

you [A7still ɾemain
my [A]first love in my [A]brain and
you'll stay there forever and
possibly some time after that

you [A7were my [A]first love
the girl i'd always dreamed of
every day i loved
holding your hand,
and [Bm]being your man
even though we were only
twelve years old

first love
everybody dreams of
you [A7were mine and
i'd smile all [Em]the time
when you [A7were on [C7]my [A]mind
i can't beleive
that was [Am7]so many years ago


after two days your friends could not believe it was [Am7]tɾue
so they decided to
give a present to [C7]me and [Bm]you
lollipops came inside their letters
both identical
it all [Em]seemed so magical

i even ɾemember our first kiss
met at the flagpole
to [C7]administer one peck on [C7]the lips
couldn't have been much more of a dork
but i loved you [A7of course
oh yeah i loved you [A7of course

that's all [Em]that mattered
way back then
nothing superficial
just two innocent kids
both in love
as it was [Am7]meant to [C7]be
you [A7and [Bm]me
for [Dm7]eternity

as it turns out
middle school just isnt the time
to [C7]be [Am]making plans
for [Dm7]the ɾest of your life
i guess i found that out the hard way didn't i
oh didn't i
uh-oh didn't i

so when we broke up
i'll admit
it was [Am7]the ɾight time
9 monts was [Am7]quite the long [Am]ɾun
and [Bm]now i'd say that were pretty good friends
im glad that our friendship didn't come to [C7]an end

you [A7were my [A]first love
the girl i'd always dreamed of
every day i loved
holding your hand,
and [Bm]being your man
even though we were only
twelve years old

first love
everybody dreams of
you [A7were mine and
i'd smile all [Em]the time
when you [A7were on [C7]my [A]mind
i can't beleive
that was [Am7]so many years ago
