First Day of My Life  Bright Eyes

[C] [E7] [Am7]  
[F] [G] [C]  
[C]This is the fi[E7]rst day of my li[Am7]fe
[F]Swear I was bo[G]rn right in the do[C]orway
[C]I went out in the ra[E7]in, suddenly everything cha[Am7]nged
They're spreadin[D7]g blankets on th[G]e beach
[C]Yours is the fi[E7]rst face that I saw[Am7]
[F]Think I was bl[G]ind before I me[C]t you
[C]Don't know where I a[E7]m, don't know where I've be[Am7]en
But I kno[D7]w where I want t[G]o go
So [C]I thought I'[G]d let yo[Am7]u know
That thes[F]e things take f[G]orever
I[C] especi[C/B]ally a[Am7]m slow
But [Dminsus2]I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come hom[C]e
(Esus4, amin7, Dminsus2, amin-maj7, amin (with pinky finger on the High E)
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bright_eyes/first_day_of_my_life_crd_ver_6.html )
[C]I remember the t[E7]ime you drove all ni[Am7]ght
[F]Just to me[G]et me in the mo[C]rning
[C]I thought it was st[E7]range, you said everything cha[Am7]nged
You felt a[D7]s if you'd just wok[G]e up
And you sai[C]d, "This is t[E7]he first day of m[Am7]y life.
[F]I'm glad I didn't di[G]e before I me[C]t you.
[C]Now I don't ca[E7]re, I could go anywhe[Am7]re with you,
And I'[D7]d probably be [G]happy."
So if yo[C]u want t[G]o be wit[Am7]h me
With thes[F]e things there's n[G]o telling
We'll jus[C]t have t[C/B]o wait an[Am7]d see
But I'd rather b[Dminsus2]e working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lotter[C]y
[Esus4] [Am7]  
Besides, m[Dminsus2]aybe this time its different, I mean I really think you like m[C]eeeee[Esus4] [Am7]
Dminsus2 amin-maj7, amin (with pinky finger on the High E)
C, Esus4, Am7, Dminsus2 amin-maj7, amin (with pinky finger on the High E)
End on C
This is the PROPER way to play this
However, you can use E major chords in place of E7, and am in place of (ch)Amin7(/ch)
Key of Actual song is E, but played in the C position Capo 4
