For The First Time Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart
While [D]I'm drinkin' Jack all alone in my local bar
And we don't know how
[Em]How we got into this mad situation
Only doing things out of frustration
[C]Tryna make it work, but man,
these times are hard

[Verse 2]
She [G]needs me now,
but I can't seem to find the time
I got a [D]new job now on the unemployment line
And we don't know how
[Em]How we got into this mess, is it God's test?
Someone help us 'cause we're doin' our best
[C]Tryna make it work, but man,
these times are hard

[Chorus 1]
But we're gonna start by
[Em]Drinkin' old cheap bottles of wine
[C]Shit talkin' up all night
[G]Sayin' things we haven't for a whi[D]le,
a while, yeah
We're [Em]smilin' but we're close to tears
[C]Even after all these years
We [G]just now got the feelin' that we're [D]meetin'

[Interlude 1]
For the first time
[G]Ooh[D] Ooh
[Em]Ooh[C]

[Verse 3]
[G]She's in line at the dole
with her head held high
While [D]I just lost my job but didn't lose my pride
And we both know how
[Em]How we're gonna make it work when it hurts
When you pick yourself up,
you get kicked to the dirt
[C]Tryna make it work, but man,
these times are hard

[Chorus 2]
But we're gonna start by
[Em]Drinkin' old cheap bottles of wine
[C]Shit talkin' up all night
[G]Doin' things we haven't for a whi[D]le,
a while, yeah
We're [Em]smilin' but we're close to tears
[C]Even after all these years
We [G]just now got the feelin' that we're [D]meetin'

[Interlude 2]
For the first time
[G]Ooh[D] Ooh
[Em]Ooh [C]Yeah

[Chorus 3]
[Em]Drinkin' old cheap bottles of wine
[C]Shit talkin' up all night
[G]Sayin' things we haven't for a whi[D]le
We're [Em]smilin' but we're close to tears
[C]Even after all these years
We [G]just now got the feelin' that we're [D]meetin'

[Interlude 3]
For the first time

[Em]Ooh
We [C]just now got the feelin' that we're meetin'

[Outro 1]

They're makin' us [D]crazy
Don't give up on me, baby
[Em]Oh, these times are hard
They're makin' us [C]crazy

They're makin' us [C]crazy
Don't give up on me, baby
