The First Time Lyrics

Title: The First Time
Intro:
VERSE 1:
Can you believe it?
It's been almost ten years now
And I'm getting that feeling
As we're driving 'round this town
Passing by the old school yard
Everything just looks so small
Before the drums and the guitars
Way back when we knew it all
Em (strum once)
And she's sitting right next to me her hand in the wind
G (strum once)
In that old white Cherokee I grew up in
D (strum once)
Yeah it's crazy
Crazy but it's true
CHORUS:
That you never get a second chance at the first time
We will never be eighteen again
No you never get a second chance at the first time
It's so good to see you my old friend
It's good to see you again
VERSE 2:
Can you believe it?
How much everything has changed?
Well they shut down the old diner
And they put in some new chain
You know it''s so good to see you
Ma, your hair had got so long
It feels like it's been forever
Used to sing you that old song
With you sitting right next to me your hand in the wind
In that old white Cherokee I grew up in
Yeah, it's crazy
Crazy cause it's true
CHORUS:
That you never get a second chance at the first time
We will never be eighteen again
No you never get a second chance at the first time
It's so good to see you my old friend
It's good to see you again
Well you know they say that growing up is hard
It's so hard to think of how we almost got so far
Do you remember on the night of our first kiss?
Baby didn't it feel just a little bit like this?
Em (strum once)
With you sitting right next to me your hand in the wind
G (strum once)
In that old white Cherokee I grew up in
D (strum once)
Yeah it's crazy
Crazy cause it's true
CHORUS:
No you never get a second chance at the first time
We will never be eighteen again
No you never get a second chance at the first time
It's so good to see you my old friend
It's good to see you again
